Android Textview setText doesn't show hebrew

In my application I have a text view that represents song title, which means it can be filled with titles in different languages. I'm having a strange problem :
When I do myTextView.setText("שלום") it won't show anything. But if I do the same in the xml file (as text property) it does show the text ?

textView.setLineSpacing(0,0);

Found the problem, I had an attribute of android:singleLine="true" and it didn't work fine with hebrew
