There is not a whole lot that you can do to access the text view.
AFAIK, everything must be done through the RemoteViews object and its
appropriate "set..." functions like you have here :
updateViews.setTextViewText(R.id.myTxt,"Helloworld");

You can access some other functions of TextView via functions like
setInt(), setDouble(), setFloat()...
But I am not positive which ones are accessible in this way.
