    You might have a listview in your layout xml file.Change it as below.

    <ListView android:id="@android:id/list" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"></ListView>

    and check whether its working or not

    check out the sample here. You may find this useful.
    This is a sample where list view is obtained from extending the ListActivity.

    ListActivity has a default layout that consists of a single, full-screen list in the center of the screen. However, if you desire, you can customize the screen layout by setting your own view layout with setContentView() in onCreate(). To do this, your own view MUST contain a ListView object with the id "@android:id/list"
