Why isn't my player falling (gravity) in Eclipse and LibGDX?

I am trying to make my player fall/go down, but he is not. He is just stuck on the map. He can't move. Can you please help?
Here is the code for the Screen. This is where I have all the methods like show, render, resize, pause, resume, hide, etc

}

Gdx.gl.glClear(GL20.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
otmr.setView(camera);
otmr.render();
otmr.getBatch().begin();
porter.draw(otmr.getBatch());
otmr.getBatch().end();
}
#Override
public void resize(int width, int height) {
camera.viewportWidth = width;
camera.viewportHeight = height;
camera.update();

Here is the code for the player
package net.hasanbilal.prisonrevelations.entities;

import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.Sprite;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.SpriteBatch;

private Vector2 velocity = new Vector2();
//change 120 to 60*2 if it doesn't work
private float speed = 60 * 2, gravity = 60 * 1.8f;
public Player(Sprite s) {
super(s);
}
public void draw(SpriteBatch sb) {
update(Gdx.graphics.getDeltaTime());
super.draw(sb);
}
private void update(float deltaTime) {
velocity.y -= gravity * deltaTime; //gravity to player
if(velocity.y>speed)
velocity.y = speed;
else if(velocity.y < speed)
velocity.y = -speed;
setX(getX() + velocity.x * deltaTime);
setY(getY() + velocity.y * deltaTime);
}
}
This assignment is due soon! Please help!

Nevermind guys, I fixed it. All I had to do is add porter.update(1);between porter.draw(otmr.getBatch()); and otmr.getBatch().end();

Box2d collision wont run on collision

Contact Collision box2D wont run on collision i want the bullet to be able to run the WorldContactListener beginContact when it begins contact and when it ends contact runningendContact
iv'e looked through a lot of places and i cant get a system print

public class WorldContactListener implements ContactListener {
#Override
public void beginContact(Contact contact) {
//called when 2 fixtures collide
System.out.println("Begin Contact");
}
#Override
public void endContact(Contact contact) {
//called when the 2 fixtures connected gets split apart
System.out.println("end Contact");
}
#Override
public void preSolve(Contact contact, Manifold oldManifold) {
//gives power to change the characteristics of fixture
collision
}
#Override
public void postSolve(Contact contact, ContactImpulse impulse) {
//gives results of what happened because of collision like
angles ext
}

You create the World but you forget to set your ContactListener to your world:
private World world;
private WorldContactListener worldContactListener;
public PlayScreen(main game) {
...
world = new World(new Vector2(0,-10), true);
worldContactListener = new WorldContactListener();
world.setContactListener(worldContactListener);
...

Lidgdx Java Sprite falling

I was not sure how to title this article. I am making a game that has sprite falling down. I already have triangles falling down in my game. I don't know how to change it where images that I import in the game that allows the image falling.
Icicle:

this.position = position;
this.velocity = new Vector2();
}
public void update(float delta) {
velocity.mulAdd(Constants.ICICLES_ACCELERATION, delta);
position.mulAdd(velocity, delta);
}
public void render(ShapeRenderer renderer) {
renderer.triangle(
position.x, position.y,

2 Borders of Screen Flickers

Im trying to make a simple game in LibGdx, using Tiled MapEditor and I have a little problem with rendering, left and bottom borders flickers whenever i move a camera.

You update the cam before your set it's position rather than after, and the projection matrix is never updated. Hopefully these two things fix your problem.
public void update(){
player.playerMove();
player.cam.update();
player.cam.position.set(player.x,player.y,0);
}
should be
public void update(){
player.playerMove();
player.cam.position.set(player.x,player.y,0);
player.cam.update();
batch.setProjectionMatrix(player.cam.combined);
}

Collision detection is off, Sprite + Tile

My game has a player who is constantly moving up. I want it so when he hits the bottom of a block, you lose, and if he hits a block on the side, he just bounces back. There is no physics involved. For whatever reason, the collision detection just isn't working as it as supposed to. For example, in the code below I am resetting the position every time the player hits the bottom. However, it always resets before he even hits the bottom of the tile. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?
Below is my code for the player (GameIcon),:
