Perhaps this tutorial can help you: android.amberfog.com

Just 2 types of items: in getView you doing almost the same, that in tutorial, but, instead of separator you setting your list item. HTH.

I assume you know how to write an xml file with a dashed stroke. ask me if you need to know how to do it.

Use two separate background xml files: background_yellow_stroke.xml and background_back_stroke.xml put them in a new res folder and name it: colors
In your adapter's getView() method: use mod (%) operand to determine whether your position is even or odd.

public class MyCustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter { private List data; private Activity context;

public NoteArrayAdapter(Activity context, int resID,
        List<Note> data) {
    super(context, resID);
    this.data = data;
    this.context = context;
}

@Override
public int getCount() {
    return data.size();
}

@Override
public boolean isEmpty() {
    return data.size() == 0;
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    if (convetView == null) {
        LayoutInflater inflater = context.getLayoutInflater();
        convertView= inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_list_item, parent, false);
    }

    if (position % 2 == 0) {
            convertView.setBackgroundResource(R.colors.background_yellow_stroke.xml )
       } 
    else
       {
           convertView.setBackgroundResource(R.colors.background_black_stroke.xml )
       }

    return convertView;
}

}

Done.

@Amardeep: That's a complete question, but I'll answer it here: use two layouts, put the stroke to the inner layout and use layout_margin for it, put the sissor to the upper-right corner of the outer layout (use relative layout) and you are good to go :)
