I customized my seek bar using the code above. The thumb of my seekbar is showing upside down. i.e thumb is behaving just in reverse direction as it should behave normally. When my listview is at the start, the thumb is at the last position of the seekbar and vice versa. HELP!!!!!!!

I have created a Inverted Seekbar implementation from the same code. While this works for Vertical Seek bar I just tried a inverted one which should be helpful in your case. I have added my project to github and here is the link to it.

https://github.com/AndroSelva/Vertical-SeekBar-Android

protected void onDraw(Canvas c) {
        c.rotate(90);
        c.translate(0, -getWidth());

        super.onDraw(c);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        if (!isEnabled()) {
            return false;
        }

        switch (event.getAction()) {
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                int i=0;
                i=getMax() - (int) (getMax() * event.getY() / getHeight());
                setProgress(100-i);
                Log.i("Progress",getProgress()+"");
                onSizeChanged(getWidth(), getHeight(), 0, 0);
                break;

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL:
                break;
        }
        return true;
    }
