I am creating an Android application where I have a ListView that displays all of the applications that were installed in my mobile phone.

My ListView is customized,

Answer 1

It's a simplifications but very easy... You need to add the the focusable flag to the checkbox, as written before. You need also to add the clickable flag, as shown here:

android:focusable="false"
android:clickable="false"

Than you control the checkbox state from within the ListView (ListFragment in my case) onListItemClick event.

This the sample onListItemClick method:

public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
//Get related checkbox and change flag status..
CheckBox cb = (CheckBox)v.findViewById(R.id.rowDone);
cb.setChecked(!cb.isChecked());
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Click item", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
