I try your code, but the LongListSelector control display a list of selectable items with a mechanism for users to jump to a specific section of the list. This is the sample code.

But if you want achieved the effect like ListBox, you can set the template

<Setter Property="Template">
                <Setter.Value>
                    <ControlTemplate TargetType="phone:LongListSelector">
                        <Grid Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" d:DesignWidth="480" d:DesignHeight="800">
                            <VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
                                <VisualStateGroup x:Name="ScrollStates">
                                    <VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
                                        <VisualTransition GeneratedDuration="00:00:00.5"/>
                                    </VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
                                    <VisualState x:Name="Scrolling">
                                        <Storyboard>
                                            <DoubleAnimation Duration="0" To="1" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" Storyboard.TargetName="VerticalScrollBar"/>
                                        </Storyboard>
                                    </VisualState>
                                    <VisualState x:Name="NotScrolling"/>
                                </VisualStateGroup>
                                <VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
                                    <VisualState x:Name="Normal"/>
                                    <VisualState x:Name="Seleced">
                                        <Storyboard>
                                            <ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Background" Storyboard.TargetName="ViewportControl">
                                                <DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="Green"/>
                                            </ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
                                        </Storyboard>
                                    </VisualState>
                                </VisualStateGroup>
                            </VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
                            <Grid Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}">
                                <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                                    <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
                                    <ColumnDefinition Width="auto"/>
                                </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                                <ViewportControl x:Name="ViewportControl" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top"/>
                                <ScrollBar x:Name="VerticalScrollBar" Grid.Column="1" Margin="4,0,4,0" Opacity="0" Orientation="Vertical"/>
                            </Grid>
                        </Grid>
                    </ControlTemplate>
                </Setter.Value>
            </Setter>
