you can set clickable true particulal textview in xml file. use setonclicklistener method. , inside of method set text color.
<textview android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:clickable="true" /> and inside java class:
textview.setonclicklistener(new onclicklistener() { @override public void onclick(view v) { textview.settextcolor(int yourcolor); //e.g. color.black } });
