Android Exception Intent, activity not found

Question

I am currently using android studio and I have put in my activities in the manifest file and I believe I am calling it correctly. I keep getting this error though:

Caused by: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {/com.ca.android.easycall.customers1}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml? android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {/com.ca.android.easycall.customers1}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

This is my Call:

Intent actCustomers1 = new Intent(this, customers1.class);
startActivity(actCustomers1);

Here is my manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.ca.android.easycall"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="7"
        android:targetSdkVersion="18" />

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            android:name="com.ca.android.easycall.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
        <activity
            android:name=".customers1"
            android:label="@string/title_activity_customers1" >
        </activity>
        <activity
            android:name=".customers2"
            android:label="@string/title_activity_customers2" >
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

Answer 1

From what you posted, it looks like your class customers1 is not declared in package com.ca.android.easycall

When you have something like android:name=".customers1" , Android compiler will try to prepend it with package name package="com.ca.android.easycall" , so it becomes com.ca.android.easycall.customers1

Quoted from Android official documentation :

android:name

The name of the class that implements the activity, a subclass of Activity. The attribute value should be a fully qualified class name (such as, "com.example.project.ExtracurricularActivity"). However, as a shorthand, if the first character of the name is a period (for example, ".ExtracurricularActivity"), it is appended to the package name specified in the element.

However because you got the error log:

Caused by: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {/com.ca.android.easycall.customers1}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

So it must be either customers1 is not declared or customers1 is not in com.ca.android.easycall package

Answer 2

Try this one,

<activity
        android:name="com.ca.android.easycall.customers1"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_customers1" >
    </activity>
    <activity
        android:name="com.ca.android.easycall.customers2"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_customers2" >
    </activity>

Answer 3

Please edit your Manifest.xml like this:

    <activity
        android:name="com.ca.android.easycall.customers1"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_customers1" >
    </activity>
    <activity
        android:name="com.ca.android.easycall.customers2"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_customers2" >
    </activity>

I hope this helps.

Answer 4

Check the package at the top of the activity file. Maybe the activities have a different package than your application.

If it is different change it to the one you have in your manifest com.ca.android.easycall
