Answer 2

you are not using focused state try using the below code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <!--  Active tab -->
    <item android:state_selected="true" android:state_focused="false"
        android:state_pressed="false" android:drawable="@drawable/gradient_bg_hover" />
    <!--  Inactive tab -->
    <item android:state_selected="false" android:state_focused="false"
        android:state_pressed="false" android:drawable="@drawable/gradient_bg" />
    <!--  Pressed tab -->
    <item android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/gradient_bg_hover" />
    <!--  Selected tab (using d-pad) -->
    <item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="true"
        android:state_pressed="false" android:drawable="@drawable/gradient_bg_hover" />
</selector>

Answer 3

To late but for other :)

you need to set the selector for your listview to transparent color

listView.setSelector(R.color.transparent);

In color.xml just add the following

<color name="transparent">#00000000</color>

Answer 4

Remove Padding from gradient_bg_hover.xml & gradient_bg.xml

And Instead Put Padding in ListView Like:

<ListView
    android:id="@+id/Sales_List"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    **android:paddingLeft="6dp"
    android:paddingTop="6dp"
    android:paddingRight="6dp"
    android:paddingBottom="6dp"**
    android:dividerHeight="7dp"
    android:divider="@android:color/transparent"
    android:listSelector="@drawable/listviewselect">

It Should Work
