How to change listitem background color programatically?

Question

I have a simple listView with 4 textview as items and I want to change the background color of each item in the listView programatically. It is important for my case to not be limited by pre-compiled color values or states, and the solution must imply changing background color after the listView has been displayed.

Is this possible, how?

So far I've tried stuff like:

listView.getAdapter().getView(0, null, null)..setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN);

or

listView.getAdapter().getView(0, listView.getAdapter().getView(i, null, null), null).setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN);

also invalidated views after this lines, but it does not work.

Best Regards.

overwrite getview in listadapter

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        View v = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);



        TextView title = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.title);
        Color mColor = new Color();
        mColor.red(redvalue);
        mColor.green(greenvalue);
        mColor.blue(bluevalue);
        title.setTextColor(mColor);

OR

        mColor.parseColor("#rrggbb")
        title.setTextColor(mColor);

....

        return v;
    }

}
