I have this 2 lines in the EditText:

%Print "HI"%

Answer 1

Try using String.split(). Code example:

String multiLines = editText.getText().toString();
String[] streets;
String delimiter = "\n";

streets = multiLines.split(delimiter);

Now you have an array of streets. Then create an ArrayAdapter like this:

ArrayAdapter arrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.list_view_items, R.id.textView, streets);

Then attach the arrayAdapter to your ListView like this:

ListView simpleList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.simpleListView);
        simpleList.setAdapter(arrayAdapter);

I would recommend switching to RecyclerView
