Android: Changing color of text in ListView without custom adapter

Question

Is it possible to change textColor in ListView without defining custom adapter for it? As in TextView we can apply style = "@style/mystyle" in which we can define textcolor.

    <ListView
    android:id="@+id/listview" 
    style="@style/WhiteText"
    />

In values, the style is defined as:

    <resources>
    <style name= "WhiteText">
    <item name ="android:textColor">#FFFFFF </item>
    <item name="android:background">#000000 </item>
    </resources>

I tried it but it's not giving me desired output. So I want to ask, is it a valid way or not?

In both the SO answers, custom ListView is used. I just want to change the textColor of ListView so I wonder is there any way to do it easily without using custom listadapter? – Stern Bravo Oct 18 '12 at 09:27
@SternBravo: you can only do it with style of the list view – Shreyash Mahajan Oct 18 '12 at 10:33
