If I had to guess I think you are following example from here: https://github.com/arun-gupta/android-samples/blob/master/HelloWorldProject/HelloWorld/src/main/java/name/arungupta/android/helloworld/MainActivity.java

To solve your problem you need to a add these two methods in your class:

    private void openSettings() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, SettingsActivity.class);
    intent.putExtra(SETTINGS_MESSAGE, "Settings");
    startActivity(intent);
}

private void openSearch() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, SearchActivity.class);
    intent.putExtra(SEARCH_MESSAGE, "Search Now");
    startActivity(intent);
}
