How to disable highlight on ListView in Xamarin.Forms

by

You might try using the ItemTapped event instead, i.e.

listSushi.ItemTapped += (object sender, ItemTappedEventArgs e) => {
    // don't do anything if we just de-selected the row.
    if (e.Item == null) return;

    // Optionally pause a bit to allow the preselect hint.
    Task.Delay(500);

    // Deselect the item.
    if (sender is ListView lv) lv.SelectedItem = null;

    // Do something with the selection.
    ...
};

I have tested this on a ListView (on an Android device) that has enough items to bring scrolling into the mix. I see no auto-scroll behavior, and your idea to set SelectedItem null to defeat the highlight works great.
