To confirm: have you already selected the text, as above (and using android:textIsSelectable), and now you want to know what to do with it? — Richard Horrocks, Oct 29 '13 at 13:48

You might be able to use the ClipboardManager, as per one of the answers in this thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6025818/select-copy-text-in-a-textview — Richard Horrocks, Oct 29 '13 at 15:10

Following up on one of my comments...

One of the answers in this thread suggests that the ClipboardManager may be the way to solve this.
