<p>I am trying to go from the <code>main.java</code> (a splash screen) to <code>Intro.java</code> in my Android application. But I am getting the following error...</p>

<p>This is my code...</p>

<p>Thanks in advance...</p>

<p>=========================== EDITED =====================================</p>

<p>It started running when i deleted all the touch events in the Intro.java.
the new java file was :</p>

<pre><code>package com.ubuntu.app;

import android.app.Activity;



import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;



public  class Intro extends Activity
{
/** Called when the activity is first created. */

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
    Log.d("Error"," Intro Started ");
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.intro);

}
}
</code></pre>

<p>But I would like to get the right way to go to next activity by touch of user..</p>
