Two awesome solutions were this, if your extending ListFragment from a fragment, know that mListView.setOnItemClickListener wont be called before your activity is created, this ensured it is set when activity has been created

@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    mListView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView adapterView, View view, int position, long rowId) {
            // Do the onItemClick action

            Log.d("ROWSELECT", "" + rowId);
        }
    });
}

While looking at the source code for ListFragment, I came across this

public class ListFragment extends Fragment {
    ...........................................
    ................................................

    final private AdapterView.OnItemClickListener mOnClickListener
                = new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int position, long id) {
            onListItemClick((ListView)parent, v, position, id);
        }
    };

    ................................................................
    ................................................................

    public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
    }
}

An onItemClickListener object is attached and it calls onListItemClick() As such the other similar solution, which works in the exact same way is to override onListItemClick()

@Override
public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long rowId) {
    super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
   // Do the onItemClick action

   Log.d("ROWSELECT", "" + rowId);
}
