package ir.Rubin.SecondTerm;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.graphics.Color;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;

public class ActivityListView extends Activity {
    ListView mListView;
    List<String> mList = new ArrayList<String>();

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.layout_listview);
        // findView
        mListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listview);
        // for adding items
        for (int i = 0; i < 200; i++) {
            mList.add("Android Class" + i);
        }
        // Creating Data
        ArrayAdapter<String> mAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mList);
        // Setting Adapter
        mListView.setAdapter(mAdapter);
    }
}

replace this android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 with your own layout it will work — Amsheer, Aug 03 '15 at 12:43
`mListView.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLUE);` and to change color of text you have to use change method in adapter class where you have linked yout TEXTVIEW to layout. — Iamat8, Aug 06 '15 at 07:05

Check the properties present in the listview component , the link below(link one). The Android documentation is extensive and very complete . She is the great friends of the developers. If you want examples, take a look at Vogela(link two) site. There are good tutorials there. But always give priority to official documentation .

  <ListView>
    android:id="@+id/listview"
    style="@style/styleName"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:dividerHeight="10dp" 
    android:textsize="#sp"
    android:textColor="[hex color code here]"
</ListView>
