We need files with codes described below.

class MainActivity

package com.example.countrieswithflags;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.ListView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        String[] recourseList=this.getResources().getStringArray(R.array.CountryCodes);

        final ListView listview = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView);
        listview.setAdapter(new CountriesListAdapter(this, recourseList));

    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

}

We need an adapter for list

CountriesListAdapter

package com.example.countrieswithflags;

import java.util.Locale;

import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class CountriesListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {
    private final Context context;
    private final String[] values;

    public CountriesListAdapter(Context context, String[] values) {
        super(context, R.layout.country_list_item, values);
        this.context = context;
        this.values = values;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
            .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);

        View rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.country_list_item, parent, false);
        TextView textView = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.txtViewCountryName);
        ImageView imageView = (ImageView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.imgViewFlag);

        String[] g=values[position].split(",");
        textView.setText(GetCountryZipCode(g[1]).trim());


        String pngName = g[1].trim().toLowerCase();
        imageView.setImageResource(context.getResources().getIdentifier("drawable/" + pngName, null, context.getPackageName()));
        return rowView;
    }

    private String GetCountryZipCode(String ssid){
        Locale loc = new Locale("", ssid);

        return loc.getDisplayCountry().trim();
    }
}

Our strings.xml will have these lines

        <item>260,ZM</item>
        <item>263,ZW</item>
    </string-array>


</resources>

in the layout we must have country_list_item.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >


    <ImageView 
        android:id="@+id/imgViewFlag"
        android:layout_height="11px"
        android:layout_width="16px"
        android:layout_margin="5dp" />

    <TextView 
        android:id="@+id/txtViewCountryName"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content" />

</LinearLayout>

and activity_main.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >



    <ListView 
        android:id="@+id/listView"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="15dp" >


    </ListView>

</RelativeLayout>

Also You can find images of flags with correct names (iso names of countries) from here. Or You can find them in the project(link given above).
