AdapterClass:

package com.example.evuser.customlistviewdemo;

import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MyBaseAdapter extends BaseAdapter {

ArrayList<ListData> myList = new ArrayList<ListData>();
LayoutInflater inflater;
Context context;


public MyBaseAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<ListData> myList) {
    this.myList = myList;
    this.context = context;
    inflater = LayoutInflater.from(this.context);
}

@Override
public int getCount() {
    return myList.size();
}

@Override
public ListData getItem(int position) {
    return myList.get(position);
}

@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
    return 0;
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    MyViewHolder mViewHolder;

    if (convertView == null) {
        convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_list_item, parent, false);
        mViewHolder = new MyViewHolder(convertView);
        convertView.setTag(mViewHolder);
    } else {
        mViewHolder = (MyViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
    }

    ListData currentListData = getItem(position);

    mViewHolder.tvTitle.setText(currentListData.getTitle());
    mViewHolder.tvDesc.setText(currentListData.getDescription());
    mViewHolder.ivIcon.setImageResource(currentListData.getImgResId());

    return convertView;
}

private class MyViewHolder {
    TextView tvTitle, tvDesc;
    ImageView ivIcon;

    public MyViewHolder(View item) {
        tvTitle = (TextView) item.findViewById(R.id.tvTitle);
        tvDesc = (TextView) item.findViewById(R.id.tvDesc);
        ivIcon = (ImageView) item.findViewById(R.id.ivIcon);
    }
}

In the above example, I have given how to create custom layout for listview and use that in adapter class. You modify this class according to your requirement.
