NullPointerException on MrNom

I was trying to execute Mr Nom(from the book Begining Android Games by Mario Zechner). but it doesn't work. My first atemp was create 2 different projects, one called framework where are com.badlogic.androidgames.framework and com.badlogic.androidgames.framework files and other project called mrnom (com.badlogic.androidgames.mrnom)with the rest of files. the framework project was added mrnom project/java build path/project/add and the result was this:

later I removed the framework from mrnom and added it using a jar file, the result was the same
Now, I copy the com.badlogic.androidgames.framework and com.badlogic.androidgames.framework files into mr project then I have com.badlogic.androidgames.mrnom, com.badlogic.androidgames.framework and com.badlogic.androidgames.framework in the same project but now the error is

if you need more coding to spot the error please tell me ! :)

Assuming line 71 is this one.-
z.setOnClickListener(this);
this line must be setting z to null.
View z = findViewById(R.id.drinksbtn);
Double check that food layout contains a view with id drinksbtn with no typos.
Notice that there's no drinksbtn in your xml, nor foodbutton neither.

Spinner problems with Sharedpreferences

Sorry,this is my first time to put questions in this site
My Function: I set two Buttons to restore and save the information in the Spinner and EditText with the function Sharedpreferences.
I execute the program at the first time. The program will appear the error state,if I click the Button "restore" to restore the information in Spinner. But I haven't met the problem when I restore the information in EditText.
This is the code in Spinner
private Spinner.OnItemSelectedListener getfeet = new OnItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position,
long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
feet_out = parent.getSelectedItemPosition() + 2;
select_f = feet.getSelectedItemPosition(); //save the position you choose
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,
"you chose " + parent.getSelectedItem().toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
};
private Spinner.OnItemSelectedListener getinch = new OnItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position,
long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
inch_out = parent.getSelectedItemPosition();
select_i = inch.getSelectedItemPosition(); //save the position you choose
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,
"you chose " + parent.getSelectedItem().toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
};
This is the code which executes the function of save in Sharedpreferences
private void save_() {
settings = getSharedPreferences("DATA", 0);
settings.edit().putInt("DATA_FEET", select_f) //store the position in DATA_FEET and DATA_INCH
.putInt("DATA_INCH", select_i)
.putString("DATA_WEIGHT", weight.getText().toString()).commit();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, R.string.done, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT) //save done
.show();
}
This is the code which executes the function of restore in Sharedpreferences
private void restore_() {
feet.setSelection(settings.getInt("DATA_FEET", select_f)); //restore the position
inch.setSelection(settings.getInt("DATA_INCH", select_i));
weight.setText(settings.getString("DATA_WEIGHT", "EMPTY"));
}
My problem is that I can't use the function of restore at the program executing at the first time. Is there any solution to solve the problem?? Because it is normal in EditText,but it is abnormal in Spinner. Thanks :))
This is the state. :))

This is the method to call the restore_()
private OnClickListener reback_1 = new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
restore_();
}
};
After I replaced the select_f and select_i into 0, it appeared the problem

You are using the SharedPrefs wrong.
feet.setSelection(settings.getInt("DATA_FEET", select_f));
when you try to fetch the integer-value from sharedPref, you get returned null! because i think that you misunderstand how it is done:
settings.getInt("myKey", defaultValue);
returns you the value for the key "myKey". if "myKey" has no value set, then it returns you the "defaultValue". In your case it returns the current value of "select_f". And as it looks, the value of select_f is null, when you run your application for the first time.
So you have to decide whether to initialize "select_f" before you retrieve the sharedPrefs or you enter another defaultValue here.

App using camera flash as a torch using Eclipse not working

I have been working on an app to use a phone's/tablet's camera flash as a flashlight. Everything seemed to be working fine but when I tested it on my Droid Bionic running Android 4.1.2, the app failed to turn on the flash even though it said it did. Here is the java code I used:
package com.example.flash;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.hardware.Camera;
import android.hardware.Camera.Parameters;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private boolean isFlashOn = false;
private Camera camera;
private Button button;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonFlashlight);
Context context = this;
PackageManager pm = context.getPackageManager();
if(!pm.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_CAMERA)) {
Log.e("err", "Device has no camera!");
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Your device doesn't have camera!",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return;
}
camera = Camera.open();
final Parameters p = camera.getParameters();
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
if (isFlashOn) {
Log.i("info", "torch is turned off!");
p.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF);
camera.setParameters(p);
isFlashOn = false;
button.setText("Tap to turn flashlight on.");
}
else {
Log.i("info", "torch is turned on!");
p.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_TORCH);
camera.setParameters(p);
isFlashOn = true;
button.setText("Tap to turn flashlight off.");
}
}
});
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
protected void onStop() {
super.onStop();
if (camera != null) {
camera.release();
}
}}
Is this code correct or did I miss something?

UPDATE
I think the key is you are running Android 4.1.2. Since Android 4.0, if you want to use the Camera Device, even if you only want to use the flash, you are forced to use a SurfaceView.
In the previous answer (below), I gave you a link to a Torch app which uses SurfaceView. Try it or adapt it to your code.
PREVIOUS ANSWER:
As stated in many other cases (like this one), you may be facing a Device-Specific issue that is quite common in the Android world.
Although getSupportedFlashModes() may return FLASH_MODE_TORCH on nearly every device, many of them don't actually support it.
Anyway, you could try these:
Use camera.startPreview(); after camera = Camera.open();
Try setting FLASH_MODE_OFF initially (before camera.startPreview();).
Check if this Torch app works in your device. In case it does, you have the source code to compare it to yours.
Download a Torch app from the Play Store to test if it's a device issue or not.
Post the issue in a Droid Bionic support forum.
UPDATE: I would say the final keyword is a problem in your code. Try changing it to:
//camera = Camera.open();
//final Parameters p = camera.getParameters();
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
if (isFlashOn) {
Log.i("info", "torch is turned off!");
cam.stopPreview();
cam.release();
isFlashOn = false;
button.setText("Tap to turn flashlight on.");
}
else {
Log.i("info", "torch is turned on!");
camera = Camera.open();
Parameters p = camera.getParameters();
p.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_OFF);
camera.setParameters(p);
camera.startPreview();
p.setFlashMode(Parameters.FLASH_MODE_TORCH);
camera.setParameters(p);
isFlashOn = true;
button.setText("Tap to turn flashlight off.");
}
}
});

user the permission "android.permission.FLASHLIGHT" in the manifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FLASHLIGHT" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />

Calling static method in one Activity from another Activity

I have these methods in X.class:
public void sendMessage(String message) {
// Check that we're actually connected before trying anything
if (mChatService.getState() != BluetoothChatService.STATE_CONNECTED) {
Toast.makeText(this, R.string.not_connected, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return;
}
// Check that there's actually something to send
if (message.length() > 0) {
// Get the message bytes and tell the BluetoothChatService to write
byte[] send = message.getBytes();
mChatService.write(send);
// Reset out string buffer to zero and clear the edit text field
mOutStringBuffer.setLength(0);
//mOutEditText.setText(mOutStringBuffer);
}
}
public static void sendMessage1(String message1){
call1.sendMessage(message1);
}
And I have the following toggleSwitch that Im clicking from another acitvity namely Y.class:
tb3.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v){
if (tb3.isChecked()){
String message = "u";
X.sendMessage1(message);
//clearer();
} else if (!tb3.isChecked()){
String message = "y";
//clearer();
}
}
});
Though I'm not getting any errors while coding but when I load the app on Android and then click on this toggleswitch my app dies?
