How to send Command prompt output to android

I am creating an app in which it will send some command to server and i want to get the output of that command on client (android).
Basically i am sending command "systeminfo" and the output is too big to handle, so is there any way to get that big output on android as text view or anything else?
Code is as below
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("systeminfo");
and for get the output i have used
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
String line = null;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
I am confused how to use it as too much of string. Any reference material would be appreciated.

I'd recommend using a StringBuilder to reconstruct each line from the BufferedReader
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
builder.append(line).append("\n"); // Remove the \n if you don't want newlines
}
final String execOutput = builder.toString();

Javamail message content newline

I've made an E-Mail Client for my Android Phone using the JavaMail API, and I try to get the message Content with the following Code:
Object contentObject = p.getContent();
InputStream is = (InputStream) contentObject;
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line);
}
String everything = sb.toString();
System.out.println(everything);
return everything;
With this method, I get the messsage Content as a String, but without Newlines. How can I format this String that he has the newlines from the Message?
P.S.: This are German e- mails, so the problem may be the encoding!?

Add like that
sb.append(line);
sb.append(System.getProperty("line.separator"));

To get the newline in textfile

I have my textfile stored in assets folder and my requirement is to show the contents in textview pointwise.I am able to access the contents if there is no space in text file which is stored in assets folder.If I puts the space in the text file then i am not able to get the contents after space.How to achieve this means to show the contents pointwise.
for example my textfile is as follows
a)Americab)Africac)India
I want output as
a) America
b) Africa
c) India
Here is my code to access the text file from assest folder which I am getting.
InputStream in = this.getAssets().open("detailtext.txt");
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
line = reader.readLine();

Since you need to read multiple lines, you need to loop through, till you reach the EOF. Try something like this:-
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(0);
InputStream in = this.getAssets().open("detailtext.txt");
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
String line = null;
while((line = reader.readLine()) != null){
sb.append(line);
sb.append("\n");
}
String wholeText = sb.toString();

You're only reading one line, you need to use a while loop and continue to read each line until the end of the file
InputStream in = this.getAssets().open("detailtext.txt");
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
while((line = reader.readLine()) != null){
// do whatever with line
}

How to get data from html in android

I have get html data from webpage. But i want to get only data excluding html tags.
I have tried this:
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet request = new HttpGet(urlText.getText().toString());
// Get the response
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InutStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent()));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = "";
while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null)
{
textView.append(line);
sb.append(line+"\n");
}
This giving me whole html data. Tell me now i can get data only.

Have you tried using Html.fromHtml(source)? or use any Java HTML parser (If they work on android) for this.
Here source is your html formatted whole data.
EDIT:
while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null)
{
sb.append(line+"\n");
}
String source = sb.toString();
textView.setText(Html.fromHtml(source));
Look at this example Android Parsing HTML Content Containing Links.

Using a buffer to convert http request responses to string in Android - Not getting entire response

I'm developing an app that posts to a site and I'm trying to store the entity response as a string. However, the string only seems to contain a small portion of the response, roughly 35 lines or so. I'm wondering if it has something to do with buffer overflow but really I am not sure. My code is below:
static String getResponseBody(HttpResponse response) throws IllegalStateException, IOException{
String content = null;
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
if (entity != null)
{
InputStream is = entity.getContent();
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null)
{
if(isBlankString(line) == false)
{
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
}
br.close();
content = sb.toString();
}
return content;
isBlankString just notes if a line doesn't contain any characters, as there's alot of blank lines in the response that were bugging me. I have the issue of not getting the whole response with or without this. Any body know what's going on or how to fix this?
Thanks

In my application I use just single line to get response string from entity:
final String responseText = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
