Vi la mayoría de las preguntas relacionadas, pero no pude encontrar ninguna que solucionara mi problema.

Este es mi código, y no tengo idea de lo que estoy haciendo mal.

Esto está anidado dentro de una sentencia if que está en la función constructora de una clase estática y la clase estática está en una clase pública que extiende ListActivity. Soy nuevo en Java.
