List View not displaying divider for 1st item with Text View on top

Question

I have a Text View on top of list view but the list is not displaying the header divider line, but if i remove the textview and keep only the list view then the header divider line is displaying.

i have tried this too : HeaderDividerEnabled : true but not working.

 <TextView 
            android:id="@+id/tv"
            android:visibility="gone"
            android:layout_below="@+id/header"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
            android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
            android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
            android:gravity="center_horizontal"
            android:textColor="#000000"
            android:textSize="@dimen/text_size"/>
        <ListView
            android:id="@android:id/list"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_below="@+id/tv"
            android:layout_marginTop="2dp"
            android:cacheColorHint="#00000000"
            android:overScrollMode="never"
            android:divider="@color/black"
            android:dividerHeight="0.8dp"
            android:listSelector="@drawable/selector">
        </ListView>

Answer 1

That is not what android:headerDividersEnabled is supposed to do. It means that if you are adding a list header whether that header needs to be separated by a divider or not.
