Fragments and Layouts

When trying to run our app, we consistently have errors with conflicting fragments not letting us run the activity. Here's a screencast of the problem I am facing
As you can see, the app itself contains a multitude of problems, but my primary focus is getting the clicker to respond on the click. Here is the class page for the clicker activity:
package com.example.android.Chapsnat;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class ContactsFragment extends AppCompatActivity {
Button btnClick;
Button btnReset;
TextView txtCount;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.fragment_contacts);
btnClick = (Button)findViewById(R.id.buttonClick);
btnReset = (Button)findViewById(R.id.buttonReset);
txtCount = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textViewCount);
btnClick.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
String countValue = txtCount.getText().toString();
int intCountValue = Integer.parseInt(countValue);
intCountValue++;
txtCount.setText(String.valueOf(intCountValue));
} });
btnReset.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
txtCount.setText(String.valueOf(0));
}
});
}
}
And this is the xml page it is being built in, which is also a fragment:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/fragment_contacts"

android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.example.android.Chapsnat.ContactsFragment">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textViewCount"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="66dp"
android:text="0"
android:textColor="#android:color/holo_purple"
android:textSize="40sp" />
<Button
android:text="Click"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/buttonClick"
android:layout_below="#+id/textViewCount"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="79dp" />
<Button
android:text="Reset"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="171dp"
android:id="#+id/buttonReset"
android:layout_below="#+id/textViewCount"
android:layout_alignStart="#+id/buttonClick" />
</RelativeLayout>
Is there any way you can help? If so please let me know.

Add checkboxes on click

I have an image file on which if clicked anywhere I would like X'd checkboxes to show up. (Right now its set up as check marks). The code that I have is just for connecting page 1 to page 2 with a button click. Here it is
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public static Button button1;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
OnclickButtonListener();
}
public void OnclickButtonListener() {
button1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.nextpage);
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
EditText userTextEntry = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.BRinfo);
String userdata = userTextEntry.getText().toString();
int userNumber = Integer.parseInt(userdata);
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,Page2.class);
intent.putExtra("para name",userNumber);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}}

I want the value of textbox to display on the same screen(scrollview)box and also i want to pass a httppost request to pass a value..plz help me out
Thnks in advance

I think, you can use a ListView insted of scroll view. and add list items from the chat text value dynamically.
call notifydatasetchanged() every time when you add a new item to it.
<TextView
android:id="#+id/username"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:text="aakash"
android:background="#c0c0c0"
/>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listView_chats"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="100dp"
>
</ListView>
<EditText
android:id="#+id/chattxt"
android:layout_width="230dp"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:hint="type here"
android:inputType="textMultiLine" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/sendbtn"
android:layout_width="75dp"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:text="Send" />
</LinearLayout>
Write a custom adapter for the listView and add the code to manage the list data.

Try this :
package com.example.internationalization12;

import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
TextView txtSignUp;
#Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
txtSignUp=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.txt_sign_up);
txtSignUp.setText(Html.fromHtml("<u>Dont have account?SignUp</u>")
txtSignUp.setOnClickListener(signUpListener);
//getActionBar().hide();
}
public OnClickListener signUpListener=new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this,Welcome.class));
}
};
}

You have to setOnTouchListener to the TextView. Here I give you an example:
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements View.OnTouchListener {
private TextView tv1;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
tv1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv1);
tv1.setOnTouchListener(this);
}
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
// HERE YOU HAVE TO CHECK WHICH ID IS SELECTED, IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN ONE,
// AND WHICH EVENT HAS THE USER DONE.
// IN YOUR CASE.. OPEN WEBSITE LIKE THIS:
Intent browserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://www.google.com"));
startActivity(browserIntent);
return true;
}
}

you can try Linkify here
textview.setText("www.androiddeveloper.com");
Linkify.addLinks(textview, Linkify.WEB_URLS);

I need the application to pass some string value associated to it to be passed into the text as soon as the user clicks on the image.How do i use the click Listeners in android to achieve the following task.
It is not necessary to fill in the code snippet that i have given.Any new ideas regarding the design are most welcome.

U can set text as Tag to the Image so that u can get that text onClick event. Tag can be set either in XML or dynamically.
public class TrialActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
ImageView img = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
img.setTag("YOur text");
img.setClickable(true);
img.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
String urText= arg0.getTag().toString();
EditText edt = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
edt.setText(urText);
}
});
}
}
This code demonstrates how to achieve your requirement dynamically.
