if you want a traditional dialog-box look, then another option would be to implement the built in Dialog Theme on your Activity containing the ListView. also, you can override the standard Dialog Theme and make changes to the background colour, fonts etc. theres a short-and-sweet example on how to do this in the Android Documentation under the section on User Interfaces => Applying Styles and Themes. apart from the Dialog Theme you also have a Translucent Theme. however, based on discussion forums, it seems that the Translucent Theme cant be overridden and customized.
