Please check out this API:

JSONObject jsonObject;
String color, item;
String str = "<font color=\"%s\">%s</font>";
// handle the exception here
item = jsonObject.getString("add")
if("F".equalsIgnoreCase(item)){
   color = "red";
}else if("T".equalsIgnoreCase(item)){
   color = "green";
}else{
    color = "blue";
}
// and inside your ArrayAdapter
itemTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml(String.format(Locale.US, str, color, item)));
