Try to use AutoCompleteTextView.This will filter the list of items at the time of entering the text in to the AutoCompleteTextView field.

or

Use this.This will help you to add the listview in the LinearLayout.When the user press the any one of the alphabet this will filter the List items

    ListView lv = new ListView(this);
    lv.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
            android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, Your_array));
    lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
    lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                int position, long id) {
            String str_item = Your_array[position];
            Toast.makeText(Your_Class_Name.this,str_item, 10).show();

        }
    });

I think searchable dictionary example is where you should start from. Code and other details are at http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/SearchableDictionary/index.html
