Use this attribute android:stackFromBottom="true", because it always add new item at bottom of list view. Like following code,

<ListView
    android:id="@+id/listView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginBottom="40dp"
    android:divider="@null"
    android:stackFromBottom="true" >
</ListView>

And add one more thing add in your code,

[listView].smoothScrollToPosition([adapter].getCount() - 1);

I'm using PulltoRefresh Listview. I think this works for normal list view. – Nijan Dec 10 '14 at 11:45

You can add reFill method to your adapter, for example:

public void reFill(List<MyData> newData){
    this.myData.clear();
    this.myData.addAll(newData);
}

So, after refreshing the ListView and getting new data, you call this method of adapter and set new data, and call notifyDataSetChanged() on adapter. If you doing this, ListView doesn't move to the top.

For PullToRefresh List view, there is no method setSelection(int position). – Nijan Dec 10 '14 at 11:20
listView.getRefreshableView().setSelection(int position); works fine. Thank you. – Nijan Dec 10 '14 at 11:55
