  • when user long clicks on a file.The list view mode should change to multiple so that user is able to select multiple files. – Raghava Dhanya Apr 06 '15 at 15:57
  • `lv.setOnItemLongClickListener(new OnItemLongClickListener() { public boolean onItemLongClick(AdapterView> arg0, View arg1, int pos, long id) { // I want to add something over here to change previous mode of list view to MULTIPLE selection mode return true; } }); ` – Raghava Dhanya Apr 06 '15 at 16:03

Assuming you're using a ListView, I believe you're looking for android:choiceMode="multipleChoiceModal" or setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE_MODAL)
