I have an android List view which shows card-like views, and as you can see in this picture, there is a thin gray line between my cards:

How can I get rid of the gray line?
My xml to achieve this card view is like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
             android:layout_width="match_parent"
             android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginLeft="6dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="6dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="4dp"
        android:layout_marginBottom="4dp"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:background="@drawable/bg_card">
    <!-- Card Contents go here -->
    <TextView
            android:id="@+id/beerNameList"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Large Text"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
    <TextView
            android:id="@+id/beerBreweryNameList"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="TextView" />
</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>
bg_card.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item>
        <shape android:shape="rectangle"
               android:dither="true">
            <corners android:radius="2dp"/>
            <solid android:color="#ccc" />
        </shape>
    </item>
    <item android:bottom="2dp">
        <shape android:shape="rectangle"
               android:dither="true">
            <corners android:radius="2dp" />
            <solid android:color="@android:color/white" />
            <padding android:bottom="8dp"
                     android:left="8dp"
                     android:right="8dp"
                     android:top="8dp" />
        </shape>
    </item>
</layer-list>
Tried the change in the divider height, here is my code it did not get rid of the gray line:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >
    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linlaHeaderProgress"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:visibility="gone" >
        <ProgressBar
            android:id="@+id/pbHeaderProgress"
            style="android@style/Spinner"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
        </ProgressBar>
    </LinearLayout>
    <ListView
        android:id="@android:id/list"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:dividerHeight="0px"
        >
    </ListView>
</LinearLayout>
dividerHeight should work. As a workaround you could change the colour of divider to your background color or to transparent colour
<ListView 
 android:id="@+id/android:list"
 android:layout_width="wrap_content"
 android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 android:divider="#E6E6E6"
 android:dividerHeight="0px"/>
You can also try to this trick:
 android:divider="@null"
I've just had the exact issue. Nothing from the XML was having effect on the outcome of the listview. Instead, as already mentioned in a comment by Quanturium, I went to my ListFragment's onActivityCreated and added -
getListView().setDivider(null);
getListView().setDividerHeight(0);
Hope this helps!
