In case you need only the child item color to be changed than in the onchildclick method set the background color to the View v.

@Override
            public boolean onChildClick(ExpandableListView parent, View v,
                    int groupPosition, int childPosition, long id) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                v.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);
}

to do so set isChildSelectable to true in the adapter.
