empty EditText caused by wrong view?

I'm new to android studio and programming. I create second table to my database and have almost identical onClickListener class first one work perfect but second give me error. EditText .getText().toString() is empty so I can't convert it to dobule. I think this problem may be caused by View but I dont know java that well and I cant find solution.
EDIT: I manage to solve this problem by adding AlertDialog to my second OnClick listener. This is not exactly what I want but it works.

Could you try setting the input type on the edittext as numberDecimal
android:inputType="numberDecimal"
That way, the user will have to input decimal number always if thats what you are expecting the user to enter.
Also, you could do a null check
if(stringWzrost != null && !stringWzrost.trim().equals("")) {
bmiWzrost = Double.valueOf(stringWzrost);
}
Right now I see that its commented out.

TextView setText Cannot resolve type

Im using Android Studio, trying set text to Text View but every time i do this
TextView test = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.testView);
test.setText("fds");
on Android Studio i see Cannot resolve symbol 'setText'.
Can someone tell me what im doing wrong?

setText() will accept String which you have passed, so there is no issue in that.
One possible reason for this might be you have not written your code inside onCreate() or onCreateView().
If it is Activity you need to use these lines after setContentView() in onCreate().
If it is Fragment you need to use these lines after inflating your view in onCreateView().
Second reason, you might be having one more test variable of different type like String or something else

facing problem while displaying the value of the variable

I have just tried to display the value of the variable but is showing some kind of exception
that is FORCE CLOSE.
the code i have tried is
TextView myTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.result9);
myTextView.setText("your score is " +count);
considered count=0 intially.
Can any one suggest me for this problem
thanks in advance

if myTexyView is in dialog you have to do this:
myTextView = (TextView) dialog.findViewById();
anyway do clean project...this happens sometimes:
in eclipse: project->clean->your project

Seems findViewById() returns null. It means that either there's no widget with id result9 in current layout or your forgot to setContentView().

can please check your xml which one you have set, setContainView() it mast have TextView with "result9" this id.

"Force Close" Error on declaring TextView and ToggleButton

Well basicly I have a textview and when the application is created it sets a string as the textviews text not hard, but I get a force close error when I run the app on my phone.
TextView sdcard=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.sd_textview);
sdcard.setText(R.string.not_mounted);
Then I have a error on a togglebutton also
ToggleButton silent=(ToggleButton)findViewById(R.id.silentbutton);
silent.setChecked(false);
And I have errors for all my other buttons/textviews can anyone help, please?!

If code for the whole textview snippet.
if (android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageState().equals(android.os.Environment.MEDIA_UNMOUNTED)) {
TextView sdcard=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.sd_textview);
sdcard.setText(R.string.not_mounted);
}
OnCreate Function
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
checkSD();
checkRing();
checkWifi();
checkBt();
}

Look for all instances of sd_textview and make sure the one that you're trying to reference is a TextView. If you want more clarity you can debug your code and see what object is actually being returned by not casting into a TextView:
View sdcard = findViewById(R.id.sd_textview); //debug this
//you can also log the View object to see the type
Log.d("Test", "" + sdcard);

Looking at your error log (assuming its the right error log) you have a ClassCastException in the checkWifi method. Edit your question and include ALL of the onCreate method and all of the checkWifi method, but I expect you are using the same id for multiple views.

Two things I can think of (although seeing more code would help).
Make sure you have called setContentView(R.layout.main) (or whatever your layout file is called). Do this BEFORE any attempt to use findViewById(...).
Secondly sdcard.setText(R.string.not_mounted); in this statement R.string.not_mounted is a resource ID (int) and not a string. You would need to use...
sdcard.setText(getString(R.string.not_mounted));

TextView.setText() followed by TextView.invalidate() doesn't update text in view

I have no idea why this doesn't work. The TextView is defined from an tag in the view. The base TextView doesn't have text set and I want to set it in the View on display.
I have tried placing the below in onCreate and onStart but it doesn't seem to work. The last two lines are just for debugging. I can verify that the header does get the text. The thing is, the TextView doesn't actually get updated. Any ideas?
TextView header=(TextView) findViewById(R.id.acheader);
header.setText(R.string.accounts);
header.invalidate();
header=(TextView) findViewById(R.id.acheader);
String blah=(String) header.getText();

Try again removing the text in 4th line
header=(TextView) findViewById(R.id.acheader);

header.invalidate() is not needed.
Instead of String blah = (String) header.getText() try
String blah = heager.getText().toString();
And why are you verifying a "setText()" on text view using code? Why can't you check the
actual output?
The above code might not work the way you are trying to use it, because the redraw of text view is handled by the framework and generally it tries to group item updates (Dirty rectangles to be specific) and update them all at once. It may do it well after your function exits, Try to validate visually, thats the best way.
