I am developing an app for android TV. I have a listview with an ImageButton + Textviews as children. As TV does not take touch events         
        
I had the same problem before. I solved my problem with adding (to the layout in xml)
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:clickable="true"
So my problem was resolved.
Note: Adding only android:focusableInTouchMode="true" doesn't work, You must have to make the layout clickable true, after focusableInTouchMode true.
