You can achieve this using a work around in getSelectionStart() and getSelectionEnd() functions of the Textview class,

tv.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {
        ClassroomLog.log(TAG, "Textview Click listener ");
        if (tv.getSelectionStart() == -1 && tv.getSelectionEnd() == -1) {
            //This condition will satisfy only when it is not an autolinked text
            //Fired only when you touch the part of the text that is not hyperlinked 
        }
    }
});
