Customized Highlight color in ListView with ItemTemplate

Hi,

i have a ListView with a customized ItemTemplate (e.g. StackLayout).
If an item in the ListView is selected the item should be highlighted with a custom color.

I tried already following solutions on stackoverflow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25885238/xamarin-forms-listview-set-the-highlight-color-of-a-tapped-item

I tried the solutions for Android.
Unfortunately the solutions in the link are not working as expected.
Is there any other solution?

Thx
Best Regards
