Hi! I said I'll give response and delayed here is it:
The help I got was right, I have to use "CheckedTextView" instead using normal "CheckBox"'es. If you are using RadioButtons or CheckBoxes instead of a CheckedTextView the list items will no longer be clickable. The layout is broken/not usable. Thanks a lot for helping me! -Danny S.
