Question

Basically I couldn’t make the darn thing to work. I am looking for runnable project that do a simple startactivity.

Intent i = new Intent(this, xxx.class);
startActivity(i);

that’s it!

I am looking for a complete project not just a code snippet. It should include all the xml files.

One search on a search engine (named after a very large integer) for:

startActivity class

in the first page of results turned up one of Lars Vogel’s excellent tutorials, covering all sorts of activity-starting scenarios. Section 3 covers your case.

There are several such samples in your SDK’s samples/ directory.

For the record, from my books, there are:

• this sample, showing starting a PreferenceActivity via an explicit Intent
• this sample, showing an activity immediately starting another activity based on conditions
• this sample, the results of tutorial #12, showing a list of restaurants plus details of a clicked-upon restaurant

(and a handful others that are going to be much too complicated for your objective)
