To clarify this – what I want to do is:

a) to open a http request to obtain some XML

b) parse that XML

c) given the (fixed) number of elements, put them with a bucle in the layout.

What I am missing is the last part. An example is ‘twicca’ or just the official Twitter application, that fills the layout with tweets. I want to do something like that. How should I proceed?

My first thought was creating a fixed number of TextView and change those TextView (TextView1, TextView2, …) with the content I wish. But that doesn’t sound very professional…

    The standard way to do this in Android is with a ListView (link to developer guide), which automatically creates as many items as needed from the data source. Most examples show pulling from a local SQLite database, but after you’ve loaded your XML items into an array in memory you can use an ArrayAdapter as the data source for the ListView.
