Question

Well I have an activity which contains nothing but a relative layout with brown background,
and I want to start another activity if the users clicks anywhere on the screen, how would i do that ??

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.mainscreen);
    }

Answer 1

First, give ID to your RelativeLayout by putting android:id="@+id/relativeLayout" in your layout file then.

RelativeLayout l = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.relativeLayout1);
l.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{

    public void onClick(View v)
    {
       // startActivity here

    }
});

or without using your RelativeLayout just implement the onTouchEvent(MotionEvent) of activity

public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event)
{
    if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP)
    {
        // start activity
    }
    return super.onTouchEvent(event);
}

Note: Not yet tried this code.
