Just to share an alternative solution using a library I created. With Textoo, this can be achieved like:

TextView locNotFound = Textoo
    .config((TextView) findViewById(R.id.view_location_disabled))
    .addLinksHandler(new LinksHandler() {
        @Override
        public boolean onClick(View view, String url) {
            if ("internal://settings/location".equals(url)) {
                Intent locSettings = new Intent(android.provider.Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
                startActivity(locSettings);
                return true;
            } else {
                return false;
            }
        }
    })
    .apply();

Or with dynamic HTML source:

String htmlSource = "Links: Google";
Spanned linksLoggingText = Textoo
    .config(htmlSource)
    .parseHtml()
    .addLinksHandler(new LinksHandler() {
        @Override
        public boolean onClick(View view, String url) {
            Log.i("MyActivity", "Linking to google...");
            return false; // event not handled.  Continue default processing i.e. link to google
        }
    })
    .apply();
textView.setText(linksLoggingText);
