Use a selector to achieve this. such that the listview's listitemselector will be set to the custom selector that you make. Also in the selector you will have an image as that green colored selector.
for example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item android:state_focused="true" android:drawable="@drawable/bg_green_with_arrow"></item>
<item android:state_selected="true" android:drawable="@drawable/bg_green_with_arrow"></item>
<item android:state_active="true" android:drawable="@drawable/bg_green_with_arrow"></item>
<item android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/bg_green_with_arrow"></item>
<item android:drawable="@drawable/bg_white_plain"></item>
</selector>
