    It is very easy to create it in bitmap images using glow effect with bright colours and placing it on a dark background.

    Also it is easy to add glow like shadow to text using code like this

    paint.setShadowLayer(float radius, float dx, float dy, int color)

    or in xml file see example:
    Android – shadow on text?

    However after experimenting, the text effects in android such as shadoLayer or

    glowPaint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(20, Blur.NORMAL));

    are not strong enough for a good neon effect, hence other apporaches may be needed. One is to create text as images in Photoshop, another is to process the text by drawing it into a separate bitmap and using various effects, scaling, alpha and Xfermodes to create a better neon effects.

    EDIT:
    The way to do this is to create two paints:
    1. neon bottom paint which should draw a blured line
    2. neon top paint which will draw a white semi-transparent line of smaller line width than the bottom one.

    Then draw the same line or path twice, using these paints, at the same coordinates.
