    copied!<p>I am a beginner in Android. I am trying to start a new activity via an intent inside an onclick event. This works fine in emulator. But when I try it in a real device it doesn't work and the application goes to the main screen again. No errors are shown in the logcat. </p> <p>This is where I call the <code>startActivity</code> method. </p> <pre><code>relativeAbout.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub try { Class OurClass = Class .forName("com.wad.tourismguide.AboutCity"); Intent newIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), OurClass); newIntent.putExtra("name", name); newIntent.putExtra("detail", detail); newIntent.putExtra("image", main); startActivity(newIntent); System.out.println("intent starting"); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { // TODO: handle exception e.printStackTrace(); } } }); </code></pre> <p>The new activity is shown below. </p> <pre><code> public class AboutCity extends Activity { TextView cityName; ImageView image; TextView detailText; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.aboutcity); cityName = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvDetailCityName); image = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ivDetailImage); detailText = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvDetailText); String name = getIntent().getStringExtra("name"); System.out.println("city name"+ name); String detail = getIntent().getStringExtra("detail"); System.out.println("city detail"+ detail); Bitmap b= (Bitmap)getIntent().getParcelableExtra("image"); System.out.println(detail); cityName.setText(name); detailText.setText(detail); image.setImageBitmap(b); } } </code></pre> <p>As I explained earlier, this works fine in the emulator. But it doesn't work in the real device. I can't find where I am going wrong. Can someone please help me with this?</p>
