TextView gravity not working with Hebrew

Question

I have TextView on Hebrew that i want to be on the right side, so i'm doing

<TextView....
    android:gravity="right"
</TextView>

On some phones it will be aligned to right and on some it will be aligned to left. I think it depends on some phone configuration. How i can fix it ??

Thanks.

This might be an issue. If it's not in the Android's issue page consider reporting it.

For now you can try fixing it placing the TextView inside a ViewGroup. Use wrap_content and layout_gravity to place it correctly inside it's parent.
