I use a TextView with links by this:
TextView tv ...
tv.setText( Html.fromHtml(somehtml))
It is ok to control the link color by setting attribute android:textColorLink, but can I remove the underline of it?

1Why do you put the tag there if you actually don't want it to be underlined? Also, it's not really a link, is it? There's no tag and you're also not using Linkify. So it's just a url printed as text, isn't it? Therefore, I don't fully understand the above mentioned problem yet, but have you tried to use and add/override styles/css in the html you pass along? – Mathias Conradt Jun 25 '10 at 12:22

OK now with html anchor tag, to avoid the underline now use the property STYLE="text-decoration:none"
< a STYLE="text-decoration:none" HREF=\"link.html\">it has no underline < /a >
this must work with a WebView but in a TextView I was using Android 1.5, 1.6 and thats not possible. =(

Just remove the html < u > tag, that indicates an underline text !

The text that I will put into the TextView will be a html with tag, and I want to make the link text in another color, so I use Html.fromHtml, but seems no way to remove the underline – Jammy Lee Jun 28 '10 at 03:18

Spanned android.text.Html.fromHtml(String source, ImageGetter imageGetter, TagHandler tagHandler)
The important part is the TagHandler. You have to implement one and then you can hopefully modify it.
Another solution: handle textview link click in my android app
