Answer 1

Since you are extending ListActivity you need to have an Listview with android:id="@android:id/list".

if you want to use @+id/lst_mainthen dont extend ListActivity, just extended Activity.

Also you need to inflate the listview using the adapter

Answer 2

You must set attribute to your ListView

android:id="@android:id/list"

Also don't forget to register your Activity in manifest
