Try using ImageSpan object, creating it with the result bitmap and attaching it to the relevant part of text in edit box. Something like this:

public class TestActivity extends Activity { 
@Override 
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { 
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); 
setContentView(R.layout.main); 
        TextView textView  = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textview); 
        SpannableString ss = new SpannableString("abc"); 
        Drawable d = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.icon32); 
        d.setBounds(0, 0, d.getIntrinsicWidth(), d.getIntrinsicHeight()); 
        ImageSpan span = new ImageSpan(d, ImageSpan.ALIGN_BASELINE); 
        ss.setSpan(span, 0, 3, Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE); 
        textView.setText(ss); 
 }
