Heres my complete solution:

            tvValue.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher(){


                @Override
                public void afterTextChanged(Editable arg0) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                }

                @Override
                public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start,
                        int count, int after) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                }

                @Override
                public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start,
                        int before, int count) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                    // here i converted to string
                    if(!s.toString().matches("^\\$(\\d{1,3}(\\,\\d{3})*|(\\d+))(\\.\\d{2})?$"))
                    {
                        String userInput= ""+s.toString().replaceAll("[^\\d]", "");
                        Float in=Float.parseFloat(userInput);
                        float percen = in/100;
                        tvValue.setText("$"+percen);
                    }

                }

            });
