Answer 1

Please check the below code.

I had tried using below code.

TextView tv = ....
tv.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());

    String content = tv.getText().toString();
    List<String> links = new ArrayList<String>();

    Pattern p = Patterns.WEB_URL;
    Matcher m = p.matcher(content);
    while (m.find()) {
        String urlStr = m.group();
        links.add(urlStr);
    }

    SpannableString f = new SpannableString(content);

    for (int i = 0; i < links.size(); i++) {
        final String url = links.get(i);

        f.setSpan(new InternalURLSpan(new OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Context ctx = v.getContext();
                String urlToOpen = url;
                if (!urlToOpen.startsWith("http://") || !urlToOpen.startsWith("https://"))
                    urlToOpen = "http://" + urlToOpen;
                openURLInBrowser(urlToOpen, ctx);
            }
        }), content.indexOf(url), content.indexOf(url) + url.length(), Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
    }

    tv.setText(f);

Hope It will help you.

InternalURLSpan class

public class InternalURLSpan extends ClickableSpan {
    OnClickListener mListener;

    public InternalURLSpan(OnClickListener listener) {
        mListener = listener;
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View widget) {
        mListener.onClick(widget);
    }
}
