View appears on Android Emulator but not on physical phone

Question

I have an activity layout consisting of just a ListView. It is supposed to use a list format xml which consists of a custom shape with three TextViews inside. In code I populate the ListView with the desired text, and when I run the app on an AVD, everything works as planned. When I deploy to my Droid Razr, however, the entire screen is blank when I run that activity.

Edit: Added code below

This is my custom shape (drawable):

<stroke
    android:width="1dp"
    android:color="#ff9f9f9f" />

<padding
    android:bottom="20dp"
    android:left="20dp"
    android:right="20dp"
    android:top="20dp" />

<solid
    android:color="@color/white" />

<corners
    android:bottomLeftRadius="7dp"
    android:bottomRightRadius="7dp"
    android:topLeftRadius="7dp"
    android:topRightRadius="7dp" />

This is my list format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
android:background="@drawable/rounded_edges"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="6dip"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light" >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/details_list_title"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginLeft="6dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="6dp"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

And this is how I use it in code:

        ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.event_details_listView);
    DetailAdapter adapter = new DetailAdapter(this, R.layout.listformat_event_details, details);
    listView.setAdapter(adapter);

Where details is an ArrayList> of my text. DetailAdapter has a getView method which adds text to the textview and inflates the layout.

Odd issue, but more details are needed. AVD vs Droid Android Version Anything in LogCat? What does your code look like? — A--C, Feb 13 '13 at 00:43
The AVD says it's Android 4.1 and my phone is 4.0.4. But I don't think I used anything that's 4.1-specific. No force closes or errors/warnings in logcat — Descartes, Feb 13 '13 at 00:45

I believe the problem may be with the <corners /> tag, which can be a bit buggy; such as the bottomRightRadius and bottomLeftRadius properties are reversed.

You can try using <corners android:radius="7dp"/> instead.

android: shape corners do not work when setting individual corners

Android - Can't create simple rectangle shape... UnsupportedOperationException?

Thanks for your response but this didn't seem to change anything. I also tried changing the padding size of the shape – Descartes Feb 13 '13 at 14:23

I was able to fix the problem by refreshing the Detail Adapter more frequently; apparently the lag in the emulator was enough time for the views to compute but the physical device was too fast.
