Do you have Zxing Barcode Scanner application installed? You have to install the application to scan using intent.

The CaptureActivity is not in the core.jar library. You have to include their Android project as library if you don't want to install and integrated in your own application. That's a lot of mess. Better install their application.

Another way is use Zbar library. I found this library easy to use and don't need their application installed. The only matter is if it support your desired barcode. I will recommend to check it out.

Edit:

Once I've tried to include zxing natively using this link.
