This was caused by bug 785994. Looking into a fix....

Nominating for tracking, since this is major loss of functionality on Web forms that use <select multiple>.

I'm not quite sure why we have this listViewStyle. Is it required for devices with a hardware menu button? This seems fine to me, but I'd like to understand a bit better where this should show up.

Oh please no! This listViewStyle is used by custom menu. And we are moving towards this approach of specifying a "common" style at application/activity level. I'll fix it in Prompt in a different way.

sriram, just tell me how you want it fixed if you want. I think the alternative is to write a custom style for these list items?

I really hate that we're not just using native styles, but if we're not we need to override the textColor in this layout. This is a simple way to do that, and I think we want this fixed before we branch next week.

I would be happy to use default views given by Android in that case -- without we ourselves calling android.R.layout.something. In which case, we don't have to override anything.

Whoops. Missed disabled item styling. Also broke pre-gingerbread phones. This fixes both for me. I'll post screenshots from both devices.
