Answer 1

For this you need to write the following:

lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

    public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view,
        int position, long id) {
        TextView textView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.list_content);
        String text = lv.get(position).toString().trim();
        System.out.println("Chosen Country = : " + text);

}});
