How to display double quotes(“) symbol in a TextView?

Question

In the strings.xml, you can simply escape special characters (eg double quotes) with a backslash :

"message \"quote string 1\" and \"quote string 2\" end message"

But in views xml (eg layout.xml), you have to use HTML character entities (like ") :

"message &quot;quote string 1&quot; and &quot;quote string 2&quot; end message"
