Segnalibro.java

  public class Segnalibro extends ListActivity{
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.segnalibro);

         lv = (ListView) getListView();         
 .....some code
      MySimpleCursorAdap myadap = new MySimpleCursorAdap(getApplicationContext(),R.layout.rowlayout_segnalibro,curr,campi, to);
         lv.setAdapter(myadap);
         lv.setClickable(true); 

          lv.setOnItemClickListener( new  OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v,int position, long arg3) {
                    Log.i("","I have clicked on item "+position);   

            }        
        });

MySimpleCursorAdap.java

      public class MySimpleCursorAdap extends SimpleCursorAdapter{

        public MySimpleCursorAdap(Context context, int layout, Cursor c, String[] from, int[] to) {
            super(context, layout, c, from, to);
        this.mLayout = layout;
        this.curr = c;
                 this.cont = context;
          }

 public void bindView(View view, Context context, final Cursor cursor) {

   ....some code

 /*       Button butt = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.butt_segnalib); 
          butt.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
     .....code to change the background
     }
        }); */
  }

in MySimpleCursorAdap I can get the Button with the method findViewById, how I can to do it in the class Segnalibro?

Ok.. so basically you need a state list for acheiving it.. see this to know how to create it.. and then set it as background of your button..
