Android Text fields with underline

An enterable field (Text control) on Android normally has a line underneath to show that it is editable. Previously this line appeared if you included SWT.BORDER in the style of the Text widget.

Now it makes no difference if SWT.BORDER is specified or not - you ALWAYS get the underline. This is no good for read-only fields as they take up much more vertical space than they need to due to the underline being visible.

Is it possible to have a read-only Text control WITHOUT the underline?
