clipBorad manager available, but for api 11 onwards . no options i believe, for pre 11 devices . read here . additionally search for more examples.

Answer 2

Use ClipBoardManager's setText method:

copytext.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {



//
    q = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt); // fetch the textview from the layout
    ClipboardManager clipboard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(CLIPBOARD_SERVICE); 
         ClipData clip = ClipData.newPlainText("label", q.getText().toString());
         clipboard.setPrimaryClip(clip);






            }
        });

Answer 3

for only copy text put this code in your copytext.onclicklist.. method:

 ClipboardManager clipboard = (ClipboardManager) getSystemService(CLIPBOARD_SERVICE); 
 ClipData clip = ClipData.newPlainText("label", ""+edittext.getText().toString());
 clipboard.setPrimaryClip(clip);
