The next solution help you make different list selector for group and child.

First of all, you need disable list selector for ExpendableListView:

...
   
...

After, you need copy an empty listSelector. You can do you like this

...
private Drawable empty;
...

// binding view here. Name of ExpandableListView will be elv
empty = elv.getSelector();

Now, we need know when we will enable list selector or disable. You should add follow changes to your adapter for that:

my adapter here {
...
    @Override
    public View getGroupView(int groupPosition, boolean isExpanded, View view, ViewGroup parent)
    {
       ...
       // after, we've got view of goup
       view.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener()
       {
           @Override
           public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)
           {
               elv.setSelector(empty);
               return false;
           }
       });
       ...
    }
...
    @Override
    public View getChildView(final int groupPosition, final int childPosition, boolean isLastChild, View convertView, final ViewGroup parent)
    {
       ...
       // after, we've got view of child
       view.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener()
       {
           @Override
           public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)
           {
               elv.setSelector(R.drawable.my_custom_list_selector);
               return false;
           }
       });
       ...
    }
...
}

That's all. I hope this solution keeps your time.
