Answer 1

use a list of states.

For example, create a file called bg_states.xml in your drawable folder an:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
    android:state_selected="true"
   android:drawable="@color/blue" ></item>
<item
    android:state_pressed="true"
   android:drawable="@color/blue" ></item>
<item 
    android:drawable="@color/black" /> 
</selector> 

and define it as a background for your TextView:

<TextView
   android:layout_width="wrap_content"
   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
   android:background="@drawable/bg_states"
