  package com.example.thenewboston;  import android.app.activity; import android.os.bundle; import android.view.menu; import android.view.menuitem; import android.view.view; import android.widget.button; import android.widget.textview;  public class startingpoint extends activity {     int counter;     button add,sub;     textview display;      @override     protected void oncreate(bundle savedinstancestate) {         super.oncreate(savedinstancestate);         setcontentview(r.layout.activity_starting_point);         counter=0;         add=(button)findviewbyid(r.id.addbutton);         sub=(button)findviewbyid(r.id.subbutton);         display=(textview) findviewbyid(r.id.display);         add.setonclicklistener(new view.onclicklistener() {              @override             public void onclick(view v) {                 // todo auto-generated method stub             counter++;             display.settext("your total = " + counter);             }         });          sub.setonclicklistener(new view.onclicklistener() {              @override             public void onclick(view v) {                 // todo auto-generated method stub                 counter--;                 display.settext("your total = " + counter);             }         });     }      @override     public boolean oncreateoptionsmenu(menu menu) {         // inflate menu; adds items action bar if present.         getmenuinflater().inflate(r.menu.starting_point, menu);         return true;     }      @override     public boolean onoptionsitemselected(menuitem item) {         // handle action bar item clicks here. action bar         // automatically handle clicks on home/up button, long         // specify parent activity in androidmanifest.xml.         int id = item.getitemid();         if (id == r.id.action_settings) {             return true;         }         return super.onoptionsitemselected(item);     } } 

splash.java

    package com.example.thenewboston; import android.app.activity; import android.content.intent; import android.os.bundle;  public class splash extends activity{      @override     public void oncreate(bundle tv) {         // todo auto-generated method stub         super.oncreate(tv);         setcontentview(r.layout.splash);         thread timer = new thread(){             public void run(){                 try{                     sleep(5000);                 }catch(interruptedexception e){                     e.printstacktrace();                 }finally{                     intent openstatingpoint= new intent("com.thenewboston.startingpoint");                      startactivity(openstatingpoint);                  }                  }         };         timer.start();     } } 

manifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     package="com.example.thenewboston"     android:versioncode="1"     android:versionname="1.0" >      <uses-sdk         android:minsdkversion="23"         android:targetsdkversion="23" />      <application         android:allowbackup="true"         android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"         android:label="@string/app_name"         android:theme="@style/apptheme" >         <activity             android:name=".startingpoint"             android:label="@string/app_name" >             <intent-filter>                 <action android:name="com.example.thenewboston.startingpoint" />                 <category android:name="android.intent.category.default" />             </intent-filter>         </activity>          <activity             android:name=".splash"             android:label="@string/app_name" >             <intent-filter>                 <action android:name="android.intent.action.main" />                 <category android:name="android.intent.category.launcher" />             </intent-filter>         </activity>     </application>  </manifest> 

try change code below:

 intent openstatingpoint= new intent(splash.this,startingpoint.class);                  startactivity(openstatingpoint); 

explanation:

the constructor used here takes two parameters: context first parameter (splash.this used because activity class subclass of context) class of app component system should deliver intent (in case, activity should started, here startingpoint.class)
