Android Tutorial issue - java

I am new to android, Eclipse and Java.
I started these tutorials from here: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/index.html
I did all the steps from the link above...my problem is when I run this app and press the 'Send' button...nothing happens, there are no errors in my Console or LogCat.
Here is my code I ended up with:
activity_main.xml:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

<EditText android:id="#+id/edit_message"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/edit_message" />
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/button_send"
android:onClick="sendMessage" />
</LinearLayout>
strings.xml:

}
}

String message = intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity.EXTRA_MESSAGE);
// Create the text view

// Set the text view as the activity layout

You need to call startActivity
public void sendMessage(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, DisplayMessageActivity.class);
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_message);
String message = editText.getText().toString();
intent.putExtra(EXTRA_MESSAGE, message);
startActivity(intent); // missing
}
Also make sure you have made an entry for the activities in manifest file.

My problem is that the client_subdomain is flagged as red in the MainActivity.java and when I try to build the project, I get the error: cannot find symbol variable client_subdomain
I think it's probably something small that I've missed out but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Sam
Store the variable using sharedPrefeence as below,
SharedPreferences sp = getSharedPreferences("your_prefs", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sp.edit();
editor.putString("your_string_key", yourStringValue);
editor.commit();
Then retrieve the value as,
SharedPreferences sp = getSharedPreferences("your_prefs", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
String myStringValue = sp.getInt("your_string_key", -1);
Use the variable in the loadUrl as
mWebView.loadUrl("https://"+myStringValue+".mydomain.co.uk");

Its because haven't declared "client_subdomain" as a variable within scope of onCreate
why don't you try changing displayData to
public String displayData () {
SharedPreferences sharedPref = getSharedPreferences("spfile",
Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
return sharedPref.getString("name", "");
}
and in onCreate of the Main Activity
...
// Enable Javascript
WebSettings webSettings = mWebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
// Use remote resource
mWebView.loadUrl("https://"+displayData()+".domain.co.uk/texts");
...
Also, I don't see you ever calling "saveInfo" anywhere in your Login Activity. As well, you should probably change the function too. You aren't grabbing the text from the EditText correctly (whatever YourSchool) is
public void saveInfo() {
SharedPreferences sharedPref = getSharedPreferences("spfile", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPref.edit();
editor.putString("name", subdomain.getText().toString());
editor.commit();
}
And this will be what your onCreate should have,
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v){
saveInfo();
Intent myIntent = new Intent(LoginActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
LoginActivity.this.startActivity(myIntent);
}
});
...
}

The new layout name is: FunPage
Thx!
From the code you pasted for MainActivity, it looks like you are mixing two different ways to handle button clicks.
If you can to register the click listener from your layout xml, the method corresponding to the onClick attribute needs to be public and not declared as a method inside your button1 listener.
An alternative is to listen to click events solely with your Java code. If you do this, then remove the onClick attribute from your layout XML for that button. There are many, many examples out there.
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View view){
//TODO -- In your case, start the "Intro" activity
}
}
It might help if you extract that method to start the Intro activity to a method outside of the click listener (i.e., as a method of MainActivity).

Set image in app as wallpaper

I am not able to set an image from the app as wallpaper. On running it shows unfortunately testandroid stopped working.
I have set the permission in the manifest file and set minimum SDK to 5.

here is the activity_main.xml file. please help me wiht it.
activity_main.xml
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.example.testandroid.MainActivity"
tools:ignore="MergeRootFrame" />
Try removing the following from onCreate()
ImageView imgview = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageview1);
imgview.setImageResource(R.drawable.bing);
And add this to your onCreateView() method in your Fragment
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container,
false);
ImageView imgview = (ImageView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.imageview1);
imgview.setImageResource(R.drawable.bing);
return rootView;

Do I have to download the google map key or something? Because i read on the internet that to load google maps on my application activity I have to download the key and only then will maps work! Is that why I am having this problem??
String url = "http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=" + "9982878"+","+"76285774"+"&daddr="+"9992084"+","+"76286455";
Intent intent1 = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent1);
If you use the above your os will find the available app's to display the map. I tested the above in samsung galaxy s3. I had the option of choosing from default phone browser, chrome and Maps. All the apps were already installed on my phone.
It may be a browser or maps available in the phone. But this opens a new application from your activity.
If you want to display map in your application by customizing, then use google map api available for android.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSqLKIow7sY. You can follow the tutorial to get google map API Key. API key is required if your using Google maps API for displaying maps on your phone.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>//permission in manifest
After you get the key in your map.xml paste the key
<com.google.android.maps.MapView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/mapview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="350dp"
android:clickable="true"
android:apiKey="paste your key here" //paste key
/>
You can also use a webview. This is as good as opening the browser to display map.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
WebView wv;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
wv= (WebView) findViewById(R.id.wv);
wv.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
WebSettings webSettings = wv.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wv.loadUrl("http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=" + "9982878"+","+"76285774"+"&daddr="+"9992084"+","+"76286455");
}
}
