I suspect the problem is that you've set 2 conflicting rules.

Try to remove the next line:

params1.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM, RelativeLayout.TRUE);

The reason: you've tried to set the view to the bottom of its parent, and also above another view.

Simplest way may be simulate nested layouts:

<LinearLayout ...>
<TextView/>
<RelativeLayout/>
</LinearLayout>

But it may decrease performance.

Edit:

First inflate your LinearLayout(it's orientation is vertically) then add your TextView and your bottom bar.Also if you want to align TextView right,you can use a RealtiveLayout instead of outer LinearLayout.
