Just replace the original ListView with your CustomListView Layout within the onCreateView method. Worked for me.

    @Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View layout = super.onCreateView(inflater, container,
            savedInstanceState);
    ListView lv = (ListView) layout.findViewById(android.R.id.list);
    ViewGroup parent = (ViewGroup) lv.getParent();

    // Remove ListView and add CustomView  in its place
    int lvIndex = parent.indexOfChild(lv);
    parent.removeViewAt(lvIndex);
    LinearLayout mLinearLayout = (LinearLayout) inflater.inflate(
            R.layout.custom_list, container, false);
    parent.addView(mLinearLayout, lvIndex, lv.getLayoutParams());
    return layout;
}
