I can see this question has been asked a couple of times before, but with no answer. How do I set the text in a TextView to be justified?
That is, I would like it to look like the left-hand example here:

A couple of months ago I decided to jump on the Android bandwagon, starting with the Incredible then moving on to the Evo. Everything was going well, life was good, then Apple announces the iPhone 4! I watched the keynote in total awe and drooled when Jon I've explained how glorious the "new" iPhone was and how it will "change everything again." Then the dust settled. The iPhone 4 will be a great phone, however it doesn't offer anything new to me. Virtually all of the reasons I used to justify switching to Android still exist!
My take on the iPhone 4:
Excellent build quality (HTC should take notes)
Fantastic screen
Up to 32 Gig memory
Integrated Video Chat/Conferencing (Wifi Only)
Very thin
It's purdy
Pseudo multitasking
Glass back
For $25 month you can get 2Gig xfer
Here's why I STILL prefer the EVO on Sprint:
WiFi Mobile Hotspot (Saves me $30 per month over my Verizon MIFI)
WiFi Mobile Hotspot allows me to hop on my laptop or my 6 year old to stream Netflix on the iPad!
Sprint TV
Unlimited data baby!
4G
Text to Speech
Speech to Text
HDMI out
8 Megapixel w/dual Flash
Replaceable battery
Turn by turn directions
Voice search
I can VPN to my work computer
3G coverage! I paid $30 per month for Edge on the iPhone! Sprint offers 3G!
Ability to video chat over 3G/4G (Been using Fring)
Ability to transfer files via FTP to my host account
I can select an app to install without being kicked out of the Market!
I have the ability to create ringtones on the fly. No need to pay an additional fee to iTunes to "convert" a song.
Live wallpapers!
Built in radio
I've found the Amazon MP3 store to be much cheaper than iTunes. For example, Fray's "The Fray" is $9.99 on itunes vs. $5.00 on Amazon MP3!
Flash Lite
I can rotate my photos
I can expand my memory
Sprints plans are cheap as hell compared to AT&T
I can email photos at full resolution
How many times have iPhone users purchased an app, only to be disappointed? On the Market, you have 24 hours to test drive. Don't like it, full refund.
Notifications
Widgets
In all honesty, both phones are mind blowing. Look at the big picture and select what phone/service will benefit you the most.
The following code incorrectly (in my view) places the text left- justified, and the button is in the center, horizontally. Why is this?

Is there any possibility to do a block of text in a justify layout?

I have a ListView that contains an Image on the left of two vertically-oriented TextViews using a RelativeLayout. When both TextViews have text it looks fine. Sometimes the TextView on the bottom won't have any text, and the problem is that the entire layout is several pixels above where it should be because it still reserves that space for text when there isn't any making the entire list have annoying blank gaps. I remember seeing an example of where someone made the layout not reserve the space, but I can't remember how he did it.

In the parent class:

Intent chooseClothesIntent = new Intent(this, ChooseClothesActivity.class);
chooseClothesIntent.putExtra("menuId", menuId);

I have a TextView that I created in the main.xml. In my app.java I am dynamically positioning that TextView based on where the user taps the screen. The problem I am having is that when I call myTextView.setPadding(100,100,0,0), it moves the actual Text of the TextView, but does not move the Colored Background of the TextView.

I had a similar problem which came down to an XML layout issue and I'm sure it's a similar issue here only I don't know how to resolve it.
How I can get the TextView to display and perhaps more importantly, direct me to some good android xml layout material?
