    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);

Solution

  • android.widget.LinearLayout cannot be cast to android.widget.EditText
    

    means that you should change

     ph0ne= (EditText) findViewById(R.id.testphone);
    

    in

    ph0ne= (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.testphone);

    or if your View should be a EditText, you have to change the view with id testphone (that is a LinearLayout) in a EditText
