findViewById on an ImageView why does setBackgroundColor give NullPointerException

I have a very basic activity with an ImageView of android:id="#+id/imageViewTest"
and then in the OnCreate method calling:
ImageView imageView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageViewTest);
// Set the background color to white
imageView.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
this gives error:

But when I do a
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
it works fine, Why?
PS: I am not able to add the layout code here, so sharing it in this doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fbi3B_hAYUh_C2IwPfInvZ-BG2bgsa4pZoJKj8NBT9o/edit?usp=sharing

Your layout you've set with setContentView() doesn't have a view with id imageViewTest and findViewById() returns null, or you haven't called setContentView() at all.

by examining what other people did
cleaned projects
restarted the eclipse, phone, emulator,adb and pc.
nothing seems to help, would appreciate any help

Try using this instead:
android:name=".Datapro"
android:authorities="dbd.mygovtnotification.datapro"

if nothing works like in my case (when it was previously working ) consider creating a new project and copying files from the old one and updating references(some will be taken in care by eclipse itself )

I would recommend you update the ADK's libraries. This question's answer details how to update your libraries.
Furthermore, verify that the libraries you imported for com.google.android.maps have been added to your build path. It seems an off thing to check but working with Android, I have seen many stranger things!
Edit: As stated by one of the comments, the deprecated maps library might be the culprit. If the update does not fix the problem. Try raising the minimum version you are targeting. Legacy support is nice but often induces more problems than it solves. Unless it is of crucial importance to you, I would personally only target the latest release which I believe was API version 14 or 16.

yup as Raghunandan said you are using Google maps API V1 which is deprecated one. Follow this link for Convert it to API V2.
And also you can try this code which I got map on my emulator.

Please help me i am tired of solving this error.....

I faced the same problem and I found the sample code was put in the "JAVA" folder instead of the "src" folder. After moving the code to src, the problem was solved.
I hope that works.

add the mainActivity in menifest according your package name if package is: com.example.androidlove-1
<activity
android:name="com.example.androidlove-1.MainActivity" >
</activity>

You did not declare MainActivity class in the manifest.xml.
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity" >
</activity>

Android Activity Not Found Exception Doesn't Make Sense

Okay well I'm trying to make a Live Wallapper but whenever I click on settings it force closes. Saying the activity is not found which doesn't make any sense because, I have it in the Manifest. This is really starting to bug me as I've been at it for over 2 hours.

Manifest:`

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.software.live_wallpaper" />
`

Your code starting an Activity. You have to mention this Activity in your AndroidManifest.xml.
like:
<activity android:name="your.package.name.ActivityClassName">
</activity>
