Answer 1

I've got a easier method to know the real height of a line before be painted, I don't know if this help you guys, but my solution to get the height of a line it's independent of the height of the layout, just take the font metrics like this:

myTextView.getPaint().getFontMetrics().bottom - myTextView.getPaint().getFontMetrics().top)

with that we get the real height that the fonts will take from the textview to be painted. This not give you an int, but you can make a Math.round to get a near value.
