Solution 1:

Your response in Unicode, try this

TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textViewmyView);
finalTypefacetf= Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(),"asunaskh.ttf");
tv.setTypeface(tf);
tv.setText(Html.fromHtml(yourText);

add this if above doesn't work

Stringstr = myString.split(" ")[0];
str = str.replace("\\","");
String[] arr = str.split("u");
String text = "";
for(int i = 1; i < arr.length; i++){
int hexVal = Integer.parseInt(arr[i], 16);
text += (char)hexVal;
}

or this

textview.setText(Html.from(StringEscapeUtils.unescapeJava(unicode))); //this method

Solution 2:

Try this font instead your current font: http://www.quran.or.kr/urdu/font/asunaskh.ttf

try {
    txtGhost.setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(this.getAssets(),"asunaskh.ttf"));
    txtGhost.setText("ur text");
}
catch(Exception ex) {
    Log.e("TAG", ex.toString());
}

And, what errors did you get in your case?
