//to-draw-an-underline-below-the-textview-in-android
//1st Approach
//For underling the text in TextView you have to use SpannableString

String udata="Underlined Text";
SpannableString content = new SpannableString(udata);
content.setSpan(new UnderlineSpan(), 0, udata.length(), 0);
mTextView.setText(content);

//2nd Approach You can make use of setPaintFlags method of TextView to underline the text of TextView.
//For eg.

mTextView.setPaintFlags(mTextView.getPaintFlags() | Paint.UNDERLINE_TEXT_FLAG);
mTextView.setText("This text will be underlined");
You can refer constants of Paint class if you want to strike thru the text.

//3rd Approach

//Make use of Html.fromHtml(htmlString);

String htmlString="<u>This text will be underlined</u>";
mTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml(htmlString));

//OR

txtView.setText(Html.fromHtml("<u>underlined</u> text"));
