Use this getView method in your ListAdapter:

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext
            .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.list_item, null);
    CheckBox checkBox = (CheckBox) view.findViewById(R.id.check);
    checkBox.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new OnCheckedChangeListener() {

        @Override
        public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView,
                boolean isChecked) {
            View row = (View) buttonView.getParent();
            if (isChecked) {
                row.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.list_item_background_checked);
            } else {
                row.setBackgroundResource(android.R.color.transparent);
            }
        }
    });
    return view;
}
