Try this way,hope this will help you to solve your problem.

 webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
 webview.loadData("*CLICK HERE AND CALL *111*2#","text/html", "utf-16");
 webview.setWebViewClient(new CustomWebViewClient());

 private class CustomWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView wv, String url) {
    if(url.startsWith("tel:")) {
       Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL);
       intent.setData(Uri.parse(url.replace("#","%23")));
       startActivity(intent);
       return true;
    }
    return false;
   }
 }
