Android first row with checkbox and the rest without

Question

I have a listview with 4 rows. I'd like that the first row has a checkbox but the other rows just keep plain clickable rows. Is this possible to do or do I need to create 2 listviews and put them underneath each other and make the first listview with a custom adapter?

Or is there a better way to do this?

Summary: I'd like to have a listview with the first row to be clicked and that checkbox changes states and the other rows just keep acting as rows. Best way to do this by making 2 listview 1 with custom view and a normal one? Or is it possible to do this in 1 listview?

Set it as header view for list

Create your custom adapter. In getView() method check

if(position == 0)
{
    //add your checkbox
}
else
{
    //without checkbox
}

See this answer, should be pretty effective and simple.

This doesn't work for a CursorAdapter. I think because CursorAdapter tries to be more efficient by pulling only groups of data at a time, rather than everything like an ArrayAdapter would do.
