Answer 1

You can use this code to get TextView with a line .

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical" 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv_textview"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Device"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_margin="3dp"
        />

    <View
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="1dp"
        android:background="#000"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/tv_textview"
        android:layout_margin="3dp"
        />

</RelativeLayout>

Answer 2

• create linear layout with match_parent width
• set orientation vertical
• put text view child with wrap_content width

• put view with 0dp width and weight = 1

  <View 
      android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_height="1dp"       
      android:background="#000"
      android:gravity="bottom" />
  

Answer 3

Do it Programitically Like..

(Use _ for Making a Line)

yourTextView.setText("Device_________________________");
yourTextView.setTextColor("Your Color Here");

and In XML file Set

Android:width = "MatchParent".

for your Text View.

Do this only if you are creating static layout.
