Just use like this -

String sourceString = "<b>" + id + "</b> " + name; 
mytextview.setText(Html.fromHtml(sourceString));

If you want to edit string in strings.xml, you can do it as -

<resource>
<string name="styled_welcome_message">We are <b>so</b> glad to see you.</string>
</resources>

You can use <b> and </b> tags in a string resource (along with their <i> and <u> counterparts). Depending on where and how you use the string resource, the formatting will be applied.

You can use the html format like below:

String str = "You are about to start a video consultation with Dr. "+doctor.lastname()+", press <b>Ok</b> to proceed"; 
textview.setText(Html.fromHtml(str);
