Solved! I use three different layouts for phones and tablets and I had forgotten to change the layout of the tablet! The TextView were not present!

you have a NullPointerException in your MainActivity.java at line number 113. — Aditya Kushwaha, Apr 15 '14 at 12:53
Just try without a modifier final i.e. `TextView sound = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.getSound);`. Also check if the textview with id `getSound` is in `main.xml`. — sjain, Apr 15 '14 at 14:04

this line:

  sound.setText(R.string.soundOff);

should be:

  sound.setText(getString(R.string.soundOff));

Edit: same a few rows below.. You can see where the nullpointer happens in your logcat, go to that line and see what could be wrong there

Edit 2: this line tells you where the problem is:

   Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
    at dado.auto3gdataswitch.MainActivity.onResume(MainActivity.java:113)

Corrected on all rows but I've the same error in the same rows! – TecnoHelp83 Apr 15 '14 at 13:33
at the setText rows? paste how your updated code looks and where the nullpointers happen – Pontus Backlund Apr 15 '14 at 13:35
edited! When i doubleclick on red line nullpoint where ERROR HERE is! – TecnoHelp83 Apr 15 '14 at 13:56
And it does the same if you just put a random String? (such as "BLABLA"). Test to see if your findViewById is correct. log to see if sound is an object or null after you instantiate it – Pontus Backlund Apr 15 '14 at 14:01
btw this is where I would go into debug mode, add breakpoints before and after, then you can more easily check what is wrong – Pontus Backlund Apr 15 '14 at 14:08

Just try without a modifier final i.e.

TextView sound = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.getSound)

Also check if the textview with id getSound is in main.xml.

If error persists, do the following change- -

Remove the following lines from onResume() and put them onCreate() after setContentView(R.layout.main);

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);
    final TextView vibration = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.getVibro);
    final TextView sound = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.getSound);
    //Rest of the code
}
