Since you've implemented BaseAdapter, which has a core method called getView, you can easily store the states of items in BaseAdapter. For example, you can use List to store the states.

Then, a listener of the ListView should be implemented, as described in http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/AdapterView.html#setOnClickListener(android.view.View.OnClickListener). The documentation of OnItemClickListener is here, http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/AdapterView.OnItemClickListener.html, through which you can get the positions of the clicks.

Finally, change the state of the items after on-click events, and call notifyDataSetChanged() in adapter to notify that the data has been changed and you'll see the updated selected items.
