             android:layout_marginRight="30dp"
             android:layout_width="match_parent"
             android:layout_height="wrap_content"

            android:text="Default ringtone"
             android:id="@+id/select_ringtone"

You may also want to consider checking the style that you are using as it might be using a font that is naturally in all caps. — Alexander N., Jul 14 '16 at 12:08

I assume, You using 23 API Level .Its default there. Don't worry.

Just add

android:textAllCaps="false"

use TextView Like this

            <TextView
             android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
             android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
             android:layout_marginRight="30dp"
             android:layout_width="match_parent"
             android:layout_height="wrap_content"
             android:text="Default ringtone"
             android:id="@+id/select_ringtone"
                     />

in this case your text show in small letters

Programmatically change the transformation method of the button. btn.setTransformationMethod(null);

OR

<style name="MyButton" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Button">
        <item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>
    </style>
