Answer 1

I edited the answer given by ramaral he used wrong escape sequence

public String getTenCharPerLineString(String text){

    String tenCharPerLineString = "";
    while (text.length() > 10) {

        String buffer = text.substring(0, 10);
        tenCharPerLineString = tenCharPerLineString + buffer + "\n";
        text = text.substring(10);
    }

    tenCharPerLineString = tenCharPerLineString + text.substring(0);
    return tenCharPerLineString;
}

Answer 2

Define a method that returns a string formatted to have 10 characters per line:

public String getTenCharPerLineString(String text){

    String tenCharPerLineString = "";
    while (text.length() > 10) {

        String buffer = text.substring(0, 10);
        tenCharPerLineString = tenCharPerLineString + buffer + "/n";
        text = text.substring(10);
    }

    tenCharPerLineString = tenCharPerLineString + text.substring(0);
    return tenCharPerLineString;
}

Add the following 2 attributes to the TextView definition:

android:singleLine="false"  
android:maxems="10"
