Is there a way to override the overscroll glow effect in listview on Gingerbread

Question

Does anyone know if there is a way to override or replace the glow effect on listviews in Gingerbread. I've tried to set overscroll mode to OVER_SCROLL_NEVER. But then you will get a "very ugly" rubber band effect where you bounce back from the end of the list.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thx!

Hey Kevin, Were you able to find the solution? I went through android's AbsListView.java file and the variables mEdgeGlowTop and mEdgeGlowBottom are private. So, there is no way to nullify their effect. However, when I use OVER_SCROLL_NEVER, I get the same bouncing effect. — Mohit, Mar 15 '11 at 01:41

setOverscrollFooter() and setOverscrollHeader() are presumably what you want. Have yet to use them myself...

Tried that already and it doesn't work. Thanks for your suggestion though – Kevin Mar 03 '11 at 12:36
What does "it doesn't work" mean? It should obviously do something... what sort of drawable are you giving it? – Reuben Scratton Mar 03 '11 at 12:38
overscrollFooter and Header are displayed perhaps a pixel or so high on the odd occasion that the listview truly overscrolls (I think it's part of the optimisations on list scroll rendering) - it isn't the same thing as the overscroll functionality to show a glow at each end of the list view. – Graeme Aug 03 '11 at 12:40
