You need to post method for fetching the lines counts. Here is the sample code

imageCaption.setText("Text Here");
imageCaption.post(new Runnable() {

    @Override
    public void run() {

        int lineCount    = imageCaption.getLineCount();

        Log.v("LINE_NUMBERS", lineCount+"");
    }
});
