The above is ok but you to it as below ::

In oncreate() you must instialize your textview and set ontouch event on it as below

TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.name);
tv.setText("text");
tv.setOnTouchListener(this);

here is the complete code including your code:::

public class MyTextView extends Activity implements OnTouchListener{
     private static final String TAG = "Touch";
        @SuppressWarnings("unused")
        private static final float MIN_ZOOM = 1f,MAX_ZOOM = 1f;

        // These matrices will be used to scale points of the image
        Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
        Matrix savedMatrix = new Matrix();

        // The 3 states (events) which the user is trying to perform
        static final int NONE = 0;
        static final int DRAG = 1;
        static final int ZOOM = 2;
        int mode = NONE;

        // these PointF objects are used to record the point(s) the user is touching
        PointF start = new PointF();
        PointF mid = new PointF();
        float oldDist = 1f;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    TextView iv = new TextView(this);
    iv.setText("text");
    iv.setOnTouchListener(this);
    setContentView(iv);
}
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
     ImageView view = (ImageView) v;
     view.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.MATRIX);
     float scale;

     dumpEvent(event);
     // Handle touch events here...

     switch (event.getAction() & 255) 
     {
         case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:   // first finger down only
                                             savedMatrix.set(matrix);
                                             start.set(event.getX(), event.getY());
                                             Log.d(TAG, "mode=DRAG"); // write to LogCat
                                             mode = DRAG;
                                             break;

         case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP: // first finger lifted

         case 6: // second finger lifted

                                             mode = NONE;
                                             Log.d(TAG, "mode=NONE");
                                             break;

         case 5: // first and second finger down

                                             oldDist = spacing(event);
