I have seen many questions regarding removing of underline for autolink of textview.

But for me, I am unable to remove underline for normal textview. I set the underline by:

textview.setPaintFlags(nameOnTemplateTextview.getPaintFlags() | Paint.UNDERLINE_TEXT_FLAG);

You can try 

 textview.setPaintFlags(textview.getPaintFlags() & (~ Paint.UNDERLINE_TEXT_FLAG));

or more broadly just set,

textview.setPaintFlags(0) but the first option is more exact
