Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo, android using java

Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo, android using java - java

UPDATE
Like an idiot I did not pay attention to the logCat.
The problem was coming from the page I was navigating to, not the intent itself, I was declaring some code before the setContentView code has a chance to run within onContentLoad().
Thanks for all the help!
I know this question has been asked before, but I have followed numerous posts about this topic; but can't seem to find the right answer.
I am trying to navigate from my MainActivity page, to my ViewFeeds page; but it is throwing the above error.
The funny thing is, I have already got the code to navigate between pages, and it works. But when I come to duplicate this code for another class, it throws the above error.
MainActivity Code (The one I am navigating from):
public void btnFeedsClick(View v)
{
Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button3);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, ViewFeeds.class);
MainActivity.this.startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
The ViewFeeds class (The one I am navigating to):
package com.example.rssapplication;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import android.app.ActionBar;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class ViewFeeds extends Activity{
//The array which holds all of the data...
ArrayList<String> items = new ArrayList<String>();
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.viewfeeds);
ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
actionBar.hide();
items = new ArrayList<String>();
String ret = "";
try {
InputStream inputStream = openFileInput("Teams.txt");
InputStreamReader inputStreamReader = new InputStreamReader(inputStream);
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(inputStreamReader);
String receiveString = "";
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
// Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, receiveString, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
try {
while ( (receiveString = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null ) {
items.add(receiveString);
stringBuilder.append(receiveString + "\r\n");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
inputStream.close();
//ret holds each line of text from the file...
ret = stringBuilder.toString();
TextView txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView6);
txt.setText(ret);
ArrayAdapter<String> arrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(
this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
items);
lv.setAdapter(arrayAdapter);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

The problem is this:
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);
You are calling findViewById() too early! You always have to be aware of the Activity Lifecycle! findViewById() can only be called after you set a layout with setContentView().
You should look for Views in onCreate() like this:
public class ViewFeeds extends Activity {
private ArrayList<String> items = new ArrayList<String>();
private ListView lv;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.viewfeeds);
lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);
...
}
...
}

1st problem declare this inside onCreate(...) after setContentView(R.layout.ur_layout)
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);
2nd problem as your application's android:minSdkVersion="8" you should use
ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
instead of Activity you have to extends ActionBarActivity of appcompat v7 support library
ActionbarActivity

Android: Activity not found to handle intent

I get this error when I run my program. It starts up the first page, but when it's supposed to go to .Menu it crashes:

Here's my Manifest:

And here are the .java files of my .Splash activity and my .Menu activity:
Splash
package com.example.secondapp;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Splash extends Activity {
MediaPlayer ourSong;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.splash);
ourSong = MediaPlayer.create(Splash.this, R.raw.happyman);
ourSong.start();
Thread timer = new Thread(){
public void run(){
try{
sleep(5000);
} catch (InterruptedException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}finally{
Intent startMain = new Intent("com.example.secondapp.MENU");
startActivity(startMain);
}
}
};
timer.start();
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPause();
finish();
}
}
Menu
package com.example.secondapp;
public class Menu extends ListActivity {
String classes[] = {"MainActivity", "example1", "example2", "example3", "example4", "example5"};
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(Menu.this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, classes));
}
#Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String Cheese = classes[position];
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
try{
Class ourClass = Class.forName("com.example.secondapp." + Cheese);
Intent ourIntent = new Intent(Menu.this, ourClass);
startActivity(ourIntent);
}catch(ClassNotFoundException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

in your manifest the action should match. Change it with com.example.secondapp.MENU

It is in caps MENU should be Menu
Change to
Intent startMain = new Intent("com.example.secondapp.Menu");
coz your activity is public class Menu extends ListActivity { and in manifest you have
<activity
android:name=".Menu"
Edit:
Explicit intents designate the target component by its name (the
component name field, mentioned earlier, has a value set). Since
component names would generally not be known to developers of other
applications, explicit intents are typically used for
application-internal messages — such as an activity starting a
subordinate service or launching a sister activity.
Implicit intents do not name a target (the field for the component
name is blank). Implicit intents are often used to activate
components in other applications.
So Change to explicit intent
Intent startMain = new Intent(Splash.this,Menu.class); // in Splash.java
and in manifest
<activity
android:name="com.example.secondapp.Menu"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
</activity>
For more info check the docs
http://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-filters.html

You need to set activity class in your manifest and you misspelled MENU
replace
<activity
android:name=".Menu"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
with
<activity
android:name=".MENU"
android:label="#string/app_name" >

You have some problems in your code:
1. Remove this line:
<uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" />
from the manifest file it's for Google Map API V1.
2. Place this peace of code at the bottom of your application tag:
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="My API CODE"/>
with your generated key for Google Map for Android API V2.
3. The package name in those permissions:
<permission
android:name="com.example.androidmapsv2.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature"></permission>
<uses-permission
android:name="com.example.androidmapsv2.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"/>
doens't match the package name specified for your application (it should):
package="com.hangoverhelper"

Unfortunately, App has stopped (Android Development)

I just started android development in 2 days and this is the error that I cannot solve "Unfortunately, [App] has stopped".
This is what I'm planning to do with the APP.
show the UI that will tell the user that by pressing ok the app will start making a log file.
when the OK button is pressed, it will run in the background (don't need UI) and will wait for the notification from other app and will write the text from the notification to the log file.
This is my AndroidManifest
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Replace this line:
Intent getNotification = new Intent("com.example.notificationnotifier.MonitorNotification");
by this one:
Intent getNotification = new Intent(GetNotification.this,
MonitorNotification.class);
Hope it helps.

Add the below code in your manifest file:
<service android:name=".MyAccessibilityService"
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService" />
</intent-filter>
. . .
</service>

Declaration
An accessibility is declared as any other service in an AndroidManifest.xml but it must also specify that it handles the "android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService" Intent. Failure to declare this intent will cause the system to ignore the accessibility service. Additionally an accessibility service must request the BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE permission to ensure that only the system can bind to it. Failure to declare this intent will cause the system to ignore the accessibility service. Following is an example declaration:
<service android:name=".MyAccessibilityService"
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService" />
</intent-filter>
. . .
</service>

I know now what the problem was, my friend told me that it should be startService not startActivity in the getNotification.java
the correct way to call it is
startService(getNotification);
not
startActivity(getNotification);
I'm extending AccesibilityService in the class in MonitorNotification.java. :D

RunTimeException when trying to implement GPS Locater

I am working on adding GPS location services to my app. However I get this error I just can't seem to fix. I have included all of my relevant coding. And if anybody has comments on any of my coding not related to the error I would appreciate them too.

Don't initialize it before OnCreate(), you can't get Context with there, do it in onCreate().
private globalAdapter adpt;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.loading);
adpt = ((globalAdapter)getApplicationContext());
...
}

1. Dont initialize the below before the onCreate, let the views get their ids first
private globalAdapter adpt = ((globalAdapter)getApplicationContext());
private String ServicePath = adpt.getServicePath();
private String ServiceName = adpt.getServiceName();
2. Just Declare them....
private globalAdapter adpt;
private String ServicePath;
private String ServiceName;
3. Its because when the Activity is not formed, how can you get the Context to that activity, cause you are using the getApplicationContext() to get the current Activity context.
