Set the following property in the xml of TextView:

android:background="#dadada"
    android:clickable="true"

Now in the java src file recieve this TextView and set OnClickListener.

    TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);

    tv.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        public void onClick(View v) {
            //perform your action here  
        }
    });

Then in your source set on click listener :
