I am new to android I get the following runtime error.
"Your content must have a ListView whose id attribute is android.R.id.list"
I was trying following tutorial

when I run their code it works fine and they use android 2.3.3 I use 4.0
I changed their code according to my requriment and got above runtime error in logcat. here is my code.
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.pm.ActivityInfo;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.Toast;
import com.xxxx.xxx.adapter.ListArrayAdapter;
public class Page5SubActivity extends ListActivity {
static final String[] MOBILE_OS = new String[] { "Android", "iOS",
"WindowsMobile", "Blackberry", "test", "test2" };
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.page5sub);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
Intent intent = getIntent();
int val = intent.getIntExtra("id", 0);
switch (val) {
case 2:
setListAdapter(new ListArrayAdapter(this, MOBILE_OS));
break;
case 3:
break;
case 4:
break;
}
}
@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
// get selected items
String selectedValue = (String) getListAdapter().getItem(position);
Toast.makeText(this, selectedValue, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
public void onClickBtn(View v) {
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.back_arrow:
Intent intent2 = new Intent(Page5SubActivity.this,
Page5Activity.class);
// intent2.putExtra("id", 2);
startActivity(intent2);
break;
}
}
}

in their example they dont use listview widget in xml file but mention in the log cat. apartfrom that it says unable to start activity compnonetinfo.
where do I have done wrong? plz help me to correct this.
Here is the original code of the xml file. here is the source of original code
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="5dp" >
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/logo"
android:layout_width="50px"
android:layout_height="50px"
android:layout_marginLeft="5px"
android:layout_marginRight="20px"
android:layout_marginTop="5px"
android:src="@drawable/windowsmobile_logo" >
</ImageView>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/label"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@+id/label"
android:textSize="30px" >
</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
I notice they dont have use listview widget in their xml file but works this example.
