Add the following as attributes in your TextView:

android:maxLines = "1"
android:scrollbars = "vertical"

Then once you have instantiated your TextView, add the line:

mTextView.setMovementMethod(new ScrollingMovementMethod());

Use 

<ScrollView> your View "</ScrollView">

And there must be only one child ScrollView.
