Hi this post will explain customized TextView in android using Spannable that means using TextView will show Multiple colors in message.

Following file are my source code:

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" >

    <TextView

        android:id="@+id/textview"

        android:textSize="35dp"

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:text="@string/hello_world" />

    <TextView

        android:id="@+id/textView1"

        android:clickable="true"

        

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"

        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"

        android:layout_marginBottom="157dp"

        android:text="TextView" />

</RelativeLayout>

MainActivity.java

package com.example.helloworld;

import android.app.Activity;

import android.content.Intent;

import android.graphics.Color;

import android.net.Uri;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.text.Spannable;

import android.text.SpannableString;

import android.text.style.ForegroundColorSpan;

import android.view.Menu;

import android.view.View;

import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textview);

Spannable wordtoSpan = new SpannableString("Algorithms run on OBU, Messages displayed on Android according to the priority.Applications listed on Android based tab");        

wordtoSpan.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.BLUE), 15, 30, Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);

wordtoSpan.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.MAGENTA), 35, 45, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

wordtoSpan.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.LTGRAY), 50, 55, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

wordtoSpan.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.CYAN), 60, 65, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

wordtoSpan.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.YELLOW), 70, 75, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

wordtoSpan.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.GREEN), 80, 85, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

tv.setText(wordtoSpan);

@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;

}

}

After running above code using eclipse it will give following screenshot. It will print text different colors (BLUE,MAGENTA,LTGRAY,CYAN,YELLOW,GREEN).
