android:text="@string/number1"

will only work when you have any string resource with that name in your values/strings.xml file.

<string name="number1">86081***20</string>

But mostly you are getting it dynamically, so you will need to set the textview text in java like this in onCreate:

String someContactNum = "86081***20";
TextView txtView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.contact_text);
txtView.setText(someContactNum);

Hope it helps.
