I need to insert in a TextView a drawable that I download from web in the code. So I can't manually put the image in res and in R.drawable.
How can I use it?

After downloading the bitmap/jpeg from online, you can change to drawable or u can use as it is.Ajitha– Ajitha2015-11-20 08:07:53 +00:00Commented Nov 20, 2015 at 8:07

Steps:
1) Download image
2) Convert to drawable
3) Set drawable to textView by calling smth like this:
textView.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.icon, 0, 0, 0);

Try this
try {
/* Open a new URL and get the InputStream to load data from it. */
URL aURL = new URL("ur Image URL");
URLConnection conn = aURL.openConnection();
conn.connect();
InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
/* Buffered is always good for a performance plus. */
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);
/* Decode url-data to a bitmap. */
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis);
bis.close();
is.close();
Drawable d =new BitmapDrawable(bm);
d.setId("1");
textview.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(0,0,1,0);// wherever u want the image relative to textview
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("DEBUGTAG", "Remote Image Exception", e);
}
