How set the android:gravity to TextView from Java side in Android

labelTV.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER | Gravity.BOTTOM);

Kotlin version (thanks to Thommy)

labelTV.gravity = Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL or Gravity.BOTTOM

Also, are you talking about gravity or about layout_gravity? The latter won't work in a RelativeLayout.

This will center the text in a text view:

TextView ta = (TextView) findViewById(R.layout.text_view);
LayoutParams lp = new LayoutParams();
lp.gravity = Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL;
ta.setLayoutParams(lp);

We can set layout gravity on any view like below way-

myView = findViewById(R.id.myView);
myView.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL|Gravity.RIGHT);
 or
myView.setGravity(Gravity.BOTTOM);

This is equilent to below xml code

<...
 android:gravity="center_vertical|right"
 ...
 .../>
