You need to extend your Adapter, and override its getView method.

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);

    int resource;

    // Here you set ‘resource’ with the correct layout, for the row
    // given by the parameter ‘position.’
    //
    // E.g.:
    //
    // switch (someArray[position].type) {
    //   case SOME_TYPE_A: resource = R.layout.a; break;
    //   case SOME_TYPE_B: resource = R.layout.b; break;
    //   ...
    // }

    View rowView = inflater.inflate(resource, parent, false);

    // Here you initialize the contents of the newly created view.
    //
    // E.g.:
    // switch (resource) {
    //   case R.layout.a:
    //      TextView aA = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.aa);
    //      aA.setText("View 1");
    //      ...
    //      break;
    //   case R.layout.b:
    //      TextView bB = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.bb);
    //      bB.setText("View 2");
    //      ...
    //      break;
    //   ...
    // }

    return rowView;
}

create regular adapter , in the create_view function inflate the row xml layout according to the row type.

for example

@Override   
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
     LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
         .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);

     if (position % 2 == 0 )
        xml_type = R.layout.row_one
     else
         xml_type = R.layout.row_two

     View rowView = inflater.inflate(xml_type, parent, false);
}
