Savings on internal storage android

I'm having some kind of logical problem with my code for saving on internal storage.
I created two methods in the class pet for load and save where I'm trying to save and load an instance of pet. I don't get any error messages in logcat, but nothing is saved when I quit and then open the application again.

You are saving the wrong object. Your code saves a Context and tries to reload it as a Pet.
Instead of
savedPet.writeObject(context.getApplicationContext());
you should be doing
savedPet.writeObject(this);

toast mesage not shown on screen when network or server not available

I need to show toast message when the server is not responding
when I press the login button, some parameters are passed to AgAppMenu screen which use url connection to server and get xml response in AgAppHelperMethods screen. The
probelm is when the server is busy or the network is not avaibale, I can't show toast message on catch block although it shows the log message.

AgAppHelperMethods isn't really an Activity. You've derived this class from Activity, but then you've created Singleton management methods (getInstance()) and you are instantiating it yourself. This is bad. Don't do this.
Normally Android controls the instantiation of activities. You don't ever create one yourself (with new).
It looks to me like AgAppHelperMethods just needs to be a regular Java class. It doesn't need to inherit from anything. Remove also the lifecycle methods like onCreate().
Now you will have a problem with the toast, because you need a context for that and AgAppHelperMethods isn't a Context. To solve that you can add Context as a parameter to AgAppXMLParser() like this:
public String[][] AgAppXMLParser(Context context, String parUrl) {
...
// Now you can use "context" to create your toast.
}
When you call AgAppXMLParser() from AgAppMenu just pass "this" as the context parameter.

Customize the android maps places?

I want show the maps of my places, based on a selection of area like business,favorites, etc.
I am using the following intent for search and display the result in the maps in Android
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://maps.google.com/maps"));
startActivity(intent);
When I click the maps place as favorites it shows that place in my places.
How can I divide the places based on category in Android?

You should use the place api for getting the selection of area.
Step by step,
How to get the list of nearest place of a location.
Step 1 : Go to API Console for obtaining the Place API
https://code.google.com/apis/console/
and select on services tab
on the place service
now select API Access tab and get the API KEY
now you have a API key for getting place
Now in programming
*Step 2 * : first create a class named Place.java. This class is used to contain the property of place which are provided by Place api.

Now create a class named PlacesService

}
}
Now create a new Activity where you want to get the list of nearest places.
