Convert Html and Set text to Textview

Question

I am trying to convert a html String and set it to a TextView but I couldn't do it exactly.

Here is my String, "Hello, %1$s! You have <b>%2$d new messages</b>"

I am using textview.setText(Html.fromHtml(myString)); which produces me an output with Html Tags instead of plain text. Can anyone help me with this?

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks
