ListView transparency

Question

I have a problem setting a list's background with transparency. I'm unable to set transparency.

Here is my code:

<ListView android:id="@+id/players_list" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_below="@+id/players_text" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:cacheColorHint="#00000000" android:background="#00000000">
</ListView>

In my activity:

ListView list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.players_list);
    ArrayList<HashMap<String, Object>> mylist = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, Object>>();
    HashMap<String, Object> map1 = new HashMap<String, Object>();
    map1.put("field1", "John Doe");
    map1.put("field2", "2342");
    mylist.add(map1);
    HashMap<String, Object> map2 = new HashMap<String, Object>();
    map2.put("field1", "Simina Dorin");
    map2.put("field2", "10000");
    mylist.add(map2);

    SimpleAdapter mSchedule = new SimpleAdapter(this, mylist,
            R.layout.online_players_row,
            new String[] { "field1", "field2" }, new int[] {
                    R.id.players_text, R.id.score_text });

    list.setAdapter(mSchedule);

Any advices?

Found the problem: I had to set my list's row layout with a background like: android:background="#80439197"
