Answer 1

Have you imported the toast widget?

import android.widget.Toast;

You can also call show() in the same line if you want to output it straight away:

Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration).show();

Hope that helps.

Answer 2

in the onClick method try this

Toast.makeText(view.getContext(), "sorry", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

it did work form me.

Answer 3

Try Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getActivity(), text, duration);

You may also wish to append .show() if you want it to display

Answer 4

First add

 import android.widget.Toast;

statement if you did not already and then

Toast.makeText(YourActvityName.this, "Your Text", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Answer 5

Just like Blackbelt said the syntax of Toast is as follows:

Toast.makeText(Activity.this, "Message",Toast.<specify Lenght>).show();

where Activity.this is the current activity, Message is the string you want to show and Toast.length is the length you want it to show it for.

Answer 6

Was having similar issue too but

getContext()

did the trick for me

// If message field is empty show a toast and alert the user
if (TextUtils.isEmpty(message)) {
   Toast.makeText(getContext(),"Please Enter a message", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
   return;
}
