android - Unable to change text color of ListFragment items -

i have listfragment populated cursor. have list background set white, , reason text set white. i've tried changing textcolor attribute in layout xml, doesn't seem have effect. can point out i'm missing? thanks.

from listfragment:

@override public void oncreate(bundle savedinstancestate) {     super.oncreate(savedinstancestate);      string[] = {dbconstants.col_family_name};     int[] = {android.r.id.text1};      getloadermanager().initloader(family_loader, null, this);     adapter = new simplecursoradapter(getactivity().getapplicationcontext(), r.layout.simple_spinner_drop_down_view, null, from, to, cursoradapter.flag_register_content_observer);     setlistadapter(adapter); }   @override public void onactivitycreated(bundle savedinstancestate) {     super.onactivitycreated(savedinstancestate);      registerforcontextmenu(getlistview());      getlistview().setbackgroundresource(android.r.color.white);     getlistview().setcachecolorhint(android.r.color.transparent); } 

the list item layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <textview xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:id="@+id/spinneritemtext"     android:layout_width="match_parent"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:padding="15dip"     android:textappearance="?android:attr/textappearancelarge"     android:textcolor="#000000" /> 

i suspect text isn't white, isn't showing because you're binding wrong textview. think need change line:

int[] = {android.r.id.text1}; 

to this:

int[] = {r.id.spinneritemtext};
