Ok, so I was instructed to make an entire forum thread on my project and it's issue.
Basically, I don't really need ListView to work with the right alternative, but it seems I'm the only person in the world this code doesn't work for, and it really irks me it isn't working (the tutorial even isn't working for me). All I'm doing is making a simple application that allows the user to use their android phone to fill out a specific form, one used by environmental building inspectors. I wanted a list of some of the form fields, which I was going to allow the user to edit directly (user clicks a ListView item, it opens a new window that has the contents of the field in a text box).
The problem is every time I run an emulation, the ListView just comes up an empty colored box. Even the tutorial ListView project available on this website, like I said above. I have a gut feeling someone will download my project and say "well, this ListView code works for me!"
As a side note, Androids have a voice recognition button for filling text fields. I use it all the time for text messaging. I don't always see the option to use it. It would *GREATLY* improve my project if that button appeared for each text field, since then the actual form filling would go a lot faster. Arguably my product would be inferior to just a pad of paper without it.
Also: I haven't tried installing this on a droid phone for testing directly yet. That's about the only thing I haven't done. But really, the computer emulation of this should work.
