Alternating Android ListView colors not working

I have extended SimpleAdapter to set alternating colors in my ListView. I can confirm the getView is getting called. However, the color change never ocurrs on the screen. I have tried android:cacheColorHint="#00000000" everywhere but that doesn't work. Any ideas?

    public class MySimpleAdapter extends SimpleAdapter 
    {

        private int[] colors = new int[] { 0xEEE9E9, 0xCDC9C9 };


    public MySimpleAdapter(Context context, List<HashMap<String, String>> items, int resource, String[] from, int[] to) 
    {
        super(context, items, resource, from, to);
    }

    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) 
    {  

        View view = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);  

        int colorPos = position % colors.开发者_如何学JAVAlength;  

        view.setBackgroundColor(colors[colorPos]);  

        return view;  

    } 

}

Looks like you're setting colors with alpha = 0; try adding the alpha component (e.g. instead of 0xEE9E9E use 0xFFEE9E9E). You are setting fully transparent colors...
