Hi Lestroso,
Could you explain what is wrong with the htmlText conversion? If I know what's wrong, I migh think of an alternative way.
Kind regards,
Mark

Hi Lestroso,
I took a look at the stack you sent to quality and while I don't have a direct answer for you on how to make your stack work, I have built a stack that does what you are trying to do (I think) but using a different web source.
One thing I'm concerned about is your original source "
http://www.investing.com/technical/technical-summary" takes forever to download and set the HTMLText, even on a desktop. The Android may just "give up".
I just picked "
http://www.fxstreet.com/rates-charts/currency-rates/" because of it's simple layout, so if you must use investing.com then my stack wont be of use to you. But it does use "set the HTMLText" to format a field.
Sorry it's in LC 5.5 but I couldn't test it in 4.6

Hi Lestroso,
But why "set htmlText works fine depending the website you are using????"
I don't believe it has actually to do with the website, except that the one you chose was hard/difficult/difficile to process (flash intro etc).
If you are concerned just try simplifying your code you will see HTMLText does work on Android.
