Cardview won't change my current activity (Intent won't work)

Question

I'm creating a language app as homework for school in android.
Right now I'm setting up some clickable CardViews (which are in "LevelsHub") to take the user to another view (called "ProfileActivity") but for some reason INTENT is not working the way it should, it takes me back to the same view ("LevelsHub"),even though I've used it in some other parts of the app. What could be happening here?

I've followed this amazing dude tutorials on it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUPM387qyrw and this one too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2V6Y7zQ8NU

Tried clicking on the cards itself, didn't work

I've already tried adding buttons to the card and using Intent on it too, didn't work.

Cycling throughout all cards to see if any of them would take me somewhere

Using this guy's method of switch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6CfaWW7G5Q

I've tried separating them one by one, the same result

It should only take me to another view, can anyone help me out a bit?

Which activity do you want to open on click? Currently, you are trying to open `ProfileActivity` on click event. — Aditya, Jan 08 '19 at 07:17
Sorry, i just left a testing parameter there, it should open ProfileActivity just for testing, I'm guessing it'll take me to my new view once it works ':) — Sarquamon, Jan 08 '19 at 07:22
@VasiliFedotov Yes, both are added to the AndroidManifest.xml — Sarquamon, Jan 08 '19 at 07:24

You have code to start activity in same line, So the code after ; will be skipped. Format your code properly and move startActivity() to next line.

case R.id.pronombresBtn1 : 
    i = new Intent(LevelsHub.this,profileActivity.class);
    startActivity(i); 
break;

Add two properties in your CardView

android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"

It will work.

Feel free to comment if you get any problem.

So basically after some digging, debug and more I was able to find the answer to my problem. Which basically was that LevelsHub activity was correct but in my profileActivity activity I had a button which was not linking correctly to the OnClickListener I had for it, so all I did was correct that and now is working like a charm.
Thanks to everybody who helped me out and gave some advices.

Cardview won't change my current activity (Intent won't work)
