Use this:

 public void onClick(View arg0) {             
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub              
 String tempTxt = ((EditText) findViewById(R.id.Textin)).getText().toString();
 if ("hello".equals(tempTxt )) {
     Toast andEggs = Toast.makeText(IfActivity.this,"PASSWORD IS CORRECT",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
     andEggs.show();
  } 
 else{
   Toast andEggs = Toast.makeText(IfActivity.this,"PASSWORD IS INCORRECT",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
   andEggs.show();
   }
 }
