This might be one of those rare situations where AbsoluteLayout is the best option. Instead of this...

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/about_mail_text2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@id/about_mail_text1"
        android:layout_marginLeft="156dip"
        android:layout_marginTop="2dp"
        android:textSize="12sp"
        android:textColor="@color/black"
        android:text="@string/ab_t2" />

... change to an AbsoluteLayout and then try this...

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/about_mail_text2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_x="156dp"
        android:layout_y="2dp"
        android:textSize="12sp"
        android:textColor="@color/black"
        android:text="@string/ab_t2" />
