Try this,

Assuming you’re using a Adapter for the list…

    final ImageButton prevButton=null;
    row.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() {          
        @Override
        public boolean onLongClick(View arg0) {
            ImageButton currButton=row.findViewById(R.id.<button_id>);
            currButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            if(prevButton!=null)
                prevButton.setVisibility(View.gone);
            prevButton=currButton;
            return true;
        }
    });
