Android TextView does not ellipsize on Android 4.0 - android-widget

Question

I was new on Android,before I am an iphone developer.These days I met a problem that I could't figure out.
In my application, I've ellipsized my TextView so that if the text is too large, it'll show ... in the middle using android:ellipsize="middle".
It works well on Android 2.2 and 2.3.But on android 4.0.4,it does not work well.
I use Samsang GALAXY SIII.It only shows "." in the middle.But if I run the project on Emulater 4.0.4,it will work well.I am confused.
People all tell me it will works well when I set singleLine true.But it still does not work.
My *.xml like this,textView:
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:singleLine="true"
android:ellipsize="middle"
android:text="#string/hello" />
string/hello=Hello World, TestTextActivity!justtestjusttestjusttestjusttestjusttestjusttestjusttestjusttestjusttestjusttest

Use This:-
<TextView

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ellipsize="marquee"
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:freezesText="true"
android:marqueeRepeatLimit="marquee_forever"
android:paddingLeft="6dp"
android:paddingRight="15dip"
android:scrollHorizontally="true"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="START | lunch 20.00 | Dinner 60.00 | Travel 60.00 | Doctor 5000.00 | lunch 20.00 | Dinner 60.00 | Travel 60.00 | Doctor 5000.00 | END" >
