I am making a simple app in which context view changes and then a toast message is displayed as input given by user. I don't understand why the app keeps on crashing when changing the context view.
Also Android studio gives this warning:
Method "Toaster" is missing in "FirstActivity" or has incorrect signature.
Here is my code:

MainScreen.java:
package com.example.nautatvanavlakha.abcd;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainScreen extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_screen);
}
public void toaster(View view){
EditText toast = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.toastText);
String final_toast = toast.getText().toString();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), final_toast, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
EDIT: As suggested, I moved the toaser function to FirstActivity.Java and deleted the MainScreen.java file as it becomes pointless to keep it. But the major problem is when I press the button (id named) the app keeps stopping.
EDIT2: I found that setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_screen) in FirstActivity.Java needs to be above this code
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.welcome);
textView.setText("Hi " + owner_string + ".");
Log.d(TAG,"owner name is set");
so that Activity has access to all the layout components. Thanks solved :)
You replaced the content view in the first activity with a layout that include the onClick attribute, but you have no public void toaster(View view) method there.
So, either don't use setContentView a second time, or implement that method on both Activities.
The recommended way to replace the view is Fragments, by the way
This is a wrong way to change the contents of your Activity, The main problem here is that you have onClick attribute set to "toaster", And you don't have a function called "toaster" in your FirstActivity.
Beside that, The MainScreen Activity in your code will never be used.
So, Your problem is that you set the FirstActivity contents to "activity_main_screen.xml", And FirstActivity doesn't have "toaster" method in it, When you change the context, the Activity will try to find toaster method and the app will crash because the method doesn't exist in FirstActivity.
You can solve this problem by making a method called "toaster" inside FirstActivity, But
This is a very bad practice, You can use Fragments instead, Or you can use Intent to move to another activity.

I'm developing an app for users to share their books. To achieve this, I'm getting different data about the book from the user. The problem is, horizontal autoscrolling of all EditTexts are working until Dialog has been shown and dismissed. Once a dialog has been dismissed on the fragment, horizontal autoscrolling of the EditText's on this layout won't work.
I added:
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
to parent layout of the edittext but doesn't work.
Also to make sure that autoscrolling is enabled I've added:
android:scrollHorizontally="true"
But none of above helped.
Here is XML code of the fragment layout.

UI Design and Dialog
In the image above, there are EditTexts Name Of Book and Name of Author. Before showing a dialog, both of them work like a charm. When writing something, the cursor automatically scrolls to the end. Once Dialog has been shown and dismissed, none of them works properly, and the cursor stays at the end of the EditText but still the characters are being written continues in the hidden part.
In this UI it cannot be seen because of the issue, but I've written.

Weird buggy layout UI image
Please, help me to solve this problem. Thanks in advance.
As a solution, I don't know the underlying reason, but the problem solved once I removed Butterknife library from my project.
The app is supposed to call one screen from another and use the other screen's layout components. Whenever I try to call a component, such as ImageButton, it says that member id is unknown, I told my teacher and he says that it shouldn't happen. I have tried renaming the components and even made a new project.
How can I fix it?
the error is in R.id

int num = getNum();
((Button)v).setText("Clicked " + num);
setNum(num + 1);
}
public void restart(View v){
restartNums = (Button) findViewById(R.id.startBtn);
prefs.edit().remove("num").apply();
restartNums.callOnClick();
}
}
I will appreciate any help.
AlignParentEnd should be used in ResetButton.( Not sure )
(Alternative) If you trying to have two buttons in the same row, you can try this layout..
`
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="90dp"
android:text="hello"
android:background="#ff14"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation = "horizontal"
android:weightsum="2"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView">
<Button
android:id="#+id/startBtn"
android:text="start"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="addOne"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/resetBtn"
android:text="restart"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="restart"/>

The simple app with just one activity is creating problems with finding the layout's TextView and showing the same as null. Kindly debug the same why the app is crashing on clicking the submit button. I tried many solutions in Stack Overflow and many solutions say that the view might be located outside the activity specified, but here the only one activity is there. So research didn't help me, and now I'm left with the fellow developers who could predict the fault I could have committed.

You are in need of a clean and rebuild. There is nothing wrong with your code. Multiple users have copied the code and used it to success in their applications, including myself:
Text is missing because I do not have your dimens or strings files.
You do not have a scope issue, as others have suggested. Your member variables should be accessible by any anonymous inner class you create.
There are otherwise missing lines from your shared code. In which case, the community can not resolve your problem as nobody will be capable of replicating it.
my code below is crashing. I am trying to have an app where the user inputs a word in the EditText and, after clicking the button, the app checks if the inputed word equals "hello", and if it does, the app takes the user to another activity.
The error is:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not find method toHi (MainActivity)(View) in a parent or ancestor Context for android:onClick attribute defined on view class android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatButton with id 'button'

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
public void toHi (View v){
EditText text = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.text);
String key = text.getText().toString();
if (key.equals("hello")){
Intent i = new Intent (this, Main2Activity.class);
startActivity(i);
}
}
}
The problem is with the value of onClick:
replace
android:onClick="toHi (MainActivity)"
with
android:onClick="toHi"
The problem is that your event specified in Button onClick is "toHi (MainActivity)" while you are defining method public void toHi(View view).
One thing more,there are circular dependencies in your xml file.You are specifiying layout_below in both button and edit text.
Code like this:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/activity_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
>
<Button
android:text="Button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_below="#+id/text" //Specify this here only
android:onClick="toHi" /> // Change here
<EditText
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="textPersonName"
android:text="hi"
android:ems="10"
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_marginTop="15dp"

android:layout_alignParentStart="true" />
