Answer 1

What you are looking for is actually this.

final EditText q = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.q);

Intent i = new Intent("android.intent.action.VIEW",
    Uri.parse("http://www.google.com/search?q=" + q.getText().toString()));
startActivity(i);

Note the use of EditText. Text is not the correct class you were looking for.
