I have a custom dialog which extends the Dialog class and a simple custom layout like the one from below:

<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:background="@android:drawable/list_selector_background"
    >


<TextView
        android:id="@+id/text_view"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:paddingLeft="10dp"
        android:background="@color/transparent"
        android:textColor="@color/black"
        android:textSize="16sp"
        android:focusable="true"/>   

My problem is that the trackball makes the text not visible when a row is selected like in the attached image.

enter image description here

The list_selector_background code is from Android and it looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<item android:state_window_focused="false" android:drawable="@color/transparent" />

<!-- Even though these two point to the same resource, have two states so the drawable will invalidate itself when coming out of pressed state. -->
<item android:state_focused="true"  android:state_enabled="false" android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/list_selector_background_disabled" />
<item android:state_focused="true"  android:state_enabled="false"                              android:drawable="@drawable/list_selector_background_disabled" />
<item android:state_focused="true"                                android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/list_selector_background_transition" />
<item android:state_focused="false"                               android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/list_selector_background_transition" />
<item android:state_focused="true"                                                             android:drawable="@drawable/list_selector_background_focus" />

And my ListView xml code is this:

<ListView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          android:layout_width="fill_parent"
          android:layout_height="fill_parent"
          android:drawSelectorOnTop="true"
          android:background="@color/white"
          android:cacheColorHint="@color/transparent">

</ListView>

I saw that on an AlertDialog (the one from Android) is working okay. What should I do to solve this problem?

    try this: remove “android” text from this line. like;

    android:background="@drawable/list_selector_background"
    

    add in list view

    android:cacheColorHint="@android:color/transparent"
    android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"
    android:listSelector="@android:color/transparent"
    android:fadingEdge="none"
    

    this one work for me
