Android Studio, Java, TextView not reflecting what I coded

Good evening community,
I am currently trying to make a layout and my code dosen't reflect what it should be.
Here is what it's suppose to look like:
Basically the text blend into the tealish bar
and this is what I have:
What to do?

Your Image is clear but your question is not, in the TextView you have to place the text what ever you want Hardcoded or not.
android:text="Your text here"
but if you want your TextView to show different results, you have to place an ID of TextView and initialize it in your Java code

Dynamically Creating/Removing Buttons in Android

Firstly, my apologies if this answer is already on here, as I've been searching for a few weeks and haven't found anything yet.
I am working on an Android app which needs to allow the user to create and remove buttons. I know how to normally create buttons statically through adding the button the XML file and creating it's functionality in the JAVA file.
Instead, I have a static button which I'll refer to as "Create Button". When the user presses on the Create Button, they should be given the option to add a new button to the current activity, allowing them to change the title of said button etc. When they close the app and open it back up; the button they added should still be there. Similarly, they should be given an option to remove buttons.
Can someone point me in the right direction? Most of the sources that I've come across only explain how to statically create buttons, like I first mentioned.
Thanks for the help!
EDIT: I was able to figure some stuff out based off of the feedback I've been given.
So far I have the following code in the onOptionsItemSelected( ) method:
if (id == R.id.add_button)
{
Button myButton = new Button(this);
myButton.setText("Push Me");
//myButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
return true;
}
I am still a little confused about how this can get added to the layout. Mainly, I am confused about the findViewById call:
RelativeLayout layout = (RelativeLayout)findViewById(R.id.?);
Which id should I be using? In the app's main XML file, there is no ID for the layout itself. It's just a "RelativeLayout".
EDIT2:
Actually, I solved the problem. Thanks for the advice! I just needed to give my layout an ID in the XML file. I knew that I could give buttons etc an ID, but never knew that I was able to do so for the actual layout itself!

Creating a button -
Button myButton = new Button(this);
Adding text to it -
myButton.setText("Push Me");
To make the button visible, you need to add it to a view like this. You can also add it to a statically created view -
LinearLayout ll = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.buttonlayout);
LayoutParams lp = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
ll.addView(myButton, lp);
Removing button -
ll.removeView(myButton);
For additional customizations, check documentation.
If you are creating multiple buttons, then I recommend setting id. This example makes it clear.
For making buttons visible after closing the app, you need to store the data on memory. The simplest way to do this is to maintain a record of the buttons and their specifications and storing them before closing the app. After opening the app, you can read the stored data and create the buttons accordingly.
For more details, check Data Storing.

ViewGroup mViewGroup = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.main_layout_id);
mViewGroup.addView(yourButton, 0, new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

Add textview in Cocos2d really need

I need to implement TextView widget in cocos2d-android-1 and don't know how please help
TextView textView = null;
textView.setText(R.string.billing_not_supported_message);
addChild(textView);
This code not working because addChild needs node. Please help really need.

I completely agree that the android version of cocos2d needs some serious 'standard UI' features adding to it.
At the moment, your only real option is to take a similar approach to my previous answer here
ANDROID:How to open web page in class extends CCLayer
whereby you have a layout which will put a textview on the screen (or you construct it yourself in your handler), and you use a handler from the activity which your scene is running in to show/hide it.
It's clunky and horrible but it works. In my field designer app i faced the same problem, but i also had to have a custom background to the text field, which resized with the text field, that had a rough edge, and the text view had to fall inside that rough edge so all the text was visible on the main bit of the background.
i achieve that using this same technique, but i created a layout xml file so that i had control over how the textview and it's background were displayed.
(note to show/hide the textview i had to give its root layout a constant ID and check for if that ID existed, and was visible, as when people touched outside it, i needed to make it vanish)

Android/java - trouble creating newlines with TextView

I just want to append a TextView element to my linearlayout in order to add a newline to the screen the users see on the phone. I tried:
final TextView newline = new TextView(this);
newline.setText("\n");
main_layout.addView(newline);
... but to no avail. In fact this code made my phone vibrate angrily for some reason.
Help much appreciated!
EDIT - typo removed, and main_layout is my linearlayout element to which I'm appending content (strings).

I'm a newbie myself, so maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but shouldn't your code read:
newline.setText("\n");
Or you could just do:
textView.append("\n");
to append a /n to an existing TextView element

First you need to add the TextView to your layout with the add() function. Better practice is to create a layout xml file for your view. It is much easier to work with.

And how is newLine getting '\n' text if you setting it on title_response?
And angry buzzing usually indicates that your application crashed. Welcome to the club :)

Try passing to the ctor of the TextView an AttributeSet as second parameter, setting the "lines" attribute. Just in order to make sure that the TextView is not created as "signle-line",

Dynamically Displaying Text with TextView (Android)

Basically what I want to do in my Android app is use TextView to display two different pieces of text at once. So in code, I want to be able to do something like this:
LinearLayout ll = new LinearLayout(this);
TextView text = new TextView(this);
text.setTextColor(0xFF000000);
text.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
text.setTextSize(20f);
text.setText("Text1");
text.setTextSize(14f);
text.setColor(0xFF0000FF);
text.setText("\nText2");
ll.addView(text);
To clarify, I am trying to display a black "Text1" and a blue "Text2" at once using only a single TextView. Obviously this doesn't work out using the code above. I've considered using a second TextView but that seems like a waste of effort and memory to me. I'm sure the brilliant minds here can come up with the best solution to this.
Thank you very much in advance for your time and your assistance.

There are two options for you.
One is
Spannable
and other is
fromHtml (String source)
So that you can get your desired output.

I think with the current version of the code, you can see only the latest text (Text2).
If you want to have multiple look and feel for two texts, I would suggest use 2 separate TextViews. It would add more flexibility.
If you are not going to change this UI code later, then you can consider Html.toHtml() in setText() call.

It seems the problem is with:
LinearLayout.addView(text);
You are trying to add a view to a LinearLayout, but the layout doesn't exist (in the current activity). You need to add the TextView to a Layout defined in the .xml you are using. Suppose you have a LinearLayout with id "linearlayout01" in the xml file "activity1.xml", you would do something like:
setContentView(R.layout.activity1);
// Create and adjust TextView text
...
LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linearlayout01);
layout.addView(text);

Once a View is added to a ViewGroup of which LinearLayout is a descendant you do not need to readd it to update its display. If you preform any changes on a view that requires it to change its display it will handle all the proper notifications about required redraws or relayouts by calling View#invalidate and View#requestLayout where appropriate.
In addition, because all UI changes are handled on the same thread you do not need to worry about calling multiple methods that will update the UI. This is because of two reasons, first, the execution of the redraws will not occur until your code is finished, second, android has optimizations built in that combines multiple invalidate calls into one.
So, the only thing you need to worry about is getting a proper reference to your TextView instance and then you can call all the methods on it that you need to make it display what you wish.
Since you are creating your Views manually and not from xml you need to add your root ViewGroup to the Activity by calling Activity#setContentView.
Edit:
Then you're going to need to learn about SpannableString and SpannableStringBuilder. There is some very brief documentation here: Selecting, Highlighting, or Styling Portions of Text

when do you plan to update the textview ? If it is on click of a button then get a reference to the textview and in the onClickListener() update the text, color, etc whatever you want to do.
After seeing your other comments, I think SpannableString is what you are looking for
