highlight text inside a textview

Question

I have a TextView with a random background color (could be any color really). I also have a text on this Textview that need to be readable. I assume the best solution is to highlight the said text in white and set the text color to black.

My question is: Is it possible to highlight the text inside a texview from the XML?

I have the following in my layout:

  <TextView
        android:layout_width="100dp"
        android:layout_height="100dp"
        android:id="@+id/colorButton4"
        android:layout_gravity="right|bottom"
        android:background="@drawable/layout_border"
        android:layout_marginRight="30dp"
        android:layout_marginBottom ="30dp"
        android:clickable="true"
        android:onClick="onClick"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:textColorHighlight="@color/bgWhite"
        android:textColor="@color/Black"
        android:text="5431354" />

But it deosn't highlight the text.
