copied!<p>I stumbled upon the same problem, but in a slightly different situation than yours. My <code>ListView</code> has a header (a search box), but the first item below it contains a section header (a date, or a letter) rather than being a regular list item (with the actual content in form of an image, some text, and so on). As such, I want it not to be selectable, so in my custom adapter I have overridden <code>areAllItemsEnabled</code> to return <code>false</code>.</p> <p>Big mistake, because that's exactly the culprit. See, it appears that, by design, the <code>ListView</code> implementation <a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-developers/uoiJo0djRZ8" rel="noreferrer">only draw dividers between two enabled items</a>, but still reserve space for dividers between an enabled item and a disabled one even if those dividers will not be drawn. The fact this is a conscious design decision does not mean it's not stupid, of course. Most weird of all, this dividers drawing policy is based just on the value returned by <code>areAllItemsEnabled</code> instead of the values returned by single calls to <code>isEnabled</code> for subsequent items.</p> <p>Thus, to work around it, I just had to return <code>true</code> from <code>areAllItemsEnabled</code> (I kept the overridden method and add a comment about this issue, otherwise I would not be able to remember it a month from now): lo and behold, white space disappeared, replaced by a divider. Now, if I want to show the <code>ListView</code> header and the first section header as being exactly adjacent, I just have to choose a divider color that's the same as the section header color.</p> <p>Really hope that's the same case as yours, or that my solution helps you in some other way.</p>
