you need to maintain a status array of type boolean in your activity, pass that array into your list adapter and while setting the checkbox check status of that position, also you need to update that status array likewise on click event of checkbox. try this you will get the desired output.

//While Setting the checkbox in adapter

     if(bStatus[position]==false)
        {
             itemSet.chSelectItem.setChecked(false);
        }else if(bStatus[position]==true)
            {
              itemSet.chSelectItem.setChecked(true);
            }   

In your main Activity

      //initilize Arraylist in main Activity
        boolean[] bStatus;
        bStatus = new boolean[BeanArray.size()];
        Arrays.fill(bStatus, false);
    MyAdapter adapter = new MyAdapter(this, BeanArray, bStatus);
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
