You can try,

((TextView)findViewById(R.id.text)).setText(Html.fromHtml("8<sup>o</sup>"));

where sup is known as superscript, also you can do subscript by writing

((TextView)findViewById(R.id.text)).setText(Html.fromHtml("8<sub>o</sub>"));

TextView txt_footer = new TextView(this);
txt_footer.setLayoutParams(childLayoutParams);
txt_footer.setText(weather.getMinTemp()  + " \u2109" + "C");

Try this to make the Celsius degree symbol red:

((TextView)findViewById(R.id.text)).setText(Html.fromHtml("8<font color=""#f00"">°</font>"));

Note that I used the shor form for #ff0000 => #f00
You might prefer to use the named color "red", instead.

This is to make it the same color (not red):

TextView txt_footer = new TextView(this);
txt_footer.setLayoutParams(childLayoutParams);
txt_footer.setText(weather.getMinTemp() + "°C");
