How to add multiple textviews inside linear layout in .XML file?

Question

My TextView is not displaying in the Screen.

This app shows information from your SIM card and gets your MAC address. If you have 2 SIM cards inserted, information from SIM card in slot 1 will be retrieved.
Mobile Country Code
Mobile Network Code
Radio Type
Mac Address
Cell Id
Location Area code

The code I used in the mainactivity.xml is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!--suppress ALL -->
<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context="com.example.onlyus.test1.MainActivity">

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="@string/intro" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="@string/mcc_code" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="@string/mnc_code" />

However it just outputs the text from the first textview. I have defined mcc_code and mnc_code in strings.xml But it does not output the string. I just started coding apk file. Any help would be greatly appreciated

according to your picture you attached..you did not change 1st textview height from android:layout_height="match_parent" to android:layout_height="wrap_content" — brahmy adigopula

Change your all TextViewheight match_parent to wrap_content it will solve your Problem.

So Change this

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="@string/intro" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="@string/mcc_code" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="@string/mnc_code" />

to this

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/intro" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/mcc_code" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/mnc_code" />

For Put Space

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/mcc_code" 
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp"/>

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/mnc_code"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp" />

For Font Size :

Add this property

android:textSize="16sp"

Nothing changed. The output still remained the same

What if I add another linear layout and add one textview in that linear layout?
