Question

How to make the ListView transparent in android?

The background android screen image should be visible.

Answer 1

You should use the more verbose

android:background="@android:color/transparent" android:cacheColorHint="@android:color/transparent" 

Updated with Jacky's response. I originally merely meant to add to his answer, since he was using a plain hex color in the sample.

Answer 2

android:background="@android:color/transparent" android:cacheColorHint="@android:color/transparent"
