    <p>I have a live wallpaper based off of some open source code that I heavily modified. As the last item, I right clicked on it in Eclipse to change the package name and all was well with the world. The wallpaper works right. The settings menu works right. But when I try to click an item in the settings menu to launch another activity, I get:</p> <pre><code> 10-10 16:16:56.215: E/AndroidRuntime(13825): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 10-10 16:16:56.215: E/AndroidRuntime(13825): android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.nightscapecreations.orionkeysfree/ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.extLinkNC}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml? </code></pre> <p>Here is the manifest file:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.nightscapecreations.anim1" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="0.9.0" &gt; &lt;uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" android:targetSdkVersion="9" /&gt; &lt;!-- Tell the system this app requires OpenGL ES 2.0. --&gt; &lt;uses-feature android:glEsVersion="0x00020000" android:required="true" /&gt; &lt;uses-feature android:name="android.software.live_wallpaper" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" /&gt; &lt;application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;service android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.VideoLiveWallpaper" android:label="@string/wallpaper" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_WALLPAPER" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.service.wallpaper.WallpaperService" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;meta-data android:name="android.service.wallpaper" android:resource="@xml/wallpaper" /&gt; &lt;/service&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.VideoLiveWallpaper" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.VideoWallpaperSettings" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.About" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.License" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.SelectVideo" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.extLinkNC" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.extLinkZazzle" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.extLinkFacebook" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;activity android:name="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.extLinkGooglePlus" android:exported="true" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;/application&gt; &lt;/manifest&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here is the About activity, as an example, which was confirmed working before this change:</p> <pre><code>package ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com; import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.text.method.LinkMovementMethod; import android.widget.TextView; import android.content.Intent; import android.view.View; import com.nightscapecreations.anim1.R; public class About extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.about); TextView t = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.about_box); t.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance()); } public void showLicense(View view) { startActivity(new Intent(About.this, License.class)); } } </code></pre> <p>ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com was the old package name. Eclipse added the prefix to the android:name for all activities during the package name change. What I don't understand is that if this is incorrect then why does the wallpaper work at all since the service name is qualified the exact same way?</p> <p><br><br><br></p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p> <p>Dunamis made an excellent catch. The original name was ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com, but it's been through several name changes since then. One such name was com.nightscapecreations.orionkeysfree. It looks like there was still a reference to that old name which I totally missed in the settings xml file. Example:</p> <pre><code>&lt;PreferenceCategory android:title="Links and Information" &gt; &lt;PreferenceScreen android:title="Visit Nightscape Creations" android:summary="See more live wallpapers, get free static wallpapers, and learn about NC by visiting us online." &gt; &lt;intent android:targetClass="ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.extLinkNC" android:targetPackage="com.nightscapecreations.orionkeysfree" /&gt; &lt;/PreferenceScreen&gt; </code></pre> <p>However, this still does not work. I tried every combination of fully qualified name and simple dot notation ".extLinkFacebook" between this file and the manifest file, but without success. Here is the error I'm receiving now with both names fully qualified:</p> <pre><code>10-11 08:19:43.176: E/AndroidRuntime(25204): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 10-11 08:19:43.176: E/AndroidRuntime(25204): android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com/ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.extLinkFacebook}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml? </code></pre> <p>Here is the settings file for reference:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" &gt; &lt;PreferenceCategory android:title="Wallpaper Settings"&gt; &lt;ffvideolivewallpaper.frankandrobot.com.PrefsSlider android:key="fps" android:title="Framerate" android:summary="Set the target framerate.

    1. CORemove the activity name prefix, just use `.VideoLiveWallpaper`. Note the dot prefix.

    2. COThe video live wallpaper activity works fine. It's the others that are a problem. That's the weird part.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
