Tried so far with 47 deg

 public class MainActivity extends Activity {

        Listview pullToRefreshListView;

Adapter class

            holder.icon = (ImageView) row.findViewById(R.id.example_image);

                    .findViewById(R.id.imageViewRight);
            holder.imageViewLeft = (ImageView) row
                    .findViewById(R.id.imageViewLeft);

    }

    public void onRight() {
        holder.imageViewRight.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        holder.imageViewLeft.setVisibility(View.GONE);
    }

    static class NewsHolder {

        TextView itemName;
        ImageView icon;
        ImageView imageViewLeft, imageViewRight;

        RelativeLayout mRelativeLayout;
    }

Instead of using a custom ListView you can simply support "swipe" gesture on list items onTouch, like the following:

private static final int DEFAULT_THRESHOLD = 128;

row.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

    int initialX = 0;
    final float slop = ViewConfiguration.get(context).getScaledTouchSlop();

    public boolean onTouch(final View view, MotionEvent event) {
        if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
            initialX = (int) event.getX();
            view.setPadding(0, 0, 0, 0);
        } else if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) {
            int currentX = (int) event.getX();
            int offset = currentX - initialX;
            if (Math.abs(offset) > slop) {
                view.setPadding(offset, 0, 0, 0);

                if (offset > DEFAULT_THRESHOLD) {
                    // TODO :: Do Right to Left action! And do nothing on action_up.
                } else if (offset < -DEFAULT_THRESHOLD) {
                    // TODO :: Do Left to Right action! And do nothing on action_up.
                }
            }
        } else if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP || event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL) {
            // Animate back if no action was performed.
            ValueAnimator animator = ValueAnimator.ofInt(view.getPaddingLeft(), 0);
            animator.addUpdateListener(new ValueAnimator.AnimatorUpdateListener() {
                @Override
                public void onAnimationUpdate(ValueAnimator valueAnimator) {
                    view.setPadding((Integer) valueAnimator.getAnimatedValue(), 0, 0, 0);
                }
            });
            animator.setDuration(150);
            animator.start();
        }
};

I also use reverse animation if no action was performed.

This solution is lightweight so you should not experience any lags.
