Switching activity on server response

Question

I am making a login activity which takes two parameters id and password. I get it check by a php API on server , which response Success on correct login credentials. I want to switch the activity if i have text = "Success" on my textview(named result) , its not working. I also tried it by keeping the check after requestqueue add below (comment) , still doesn't work. If my approach is incorrect please suggest me the easiest possible way to achieve this task.

What does "its not working" mean? What happens when you run your app? — Code-Apprentice, Oct 02 '16 at 20:31

Why not compare `response`? You don't need to set an TextView when you are immediately starting a new Activity with that result — OneCricketeer, Oct 02 '16 at 20:34
