my codes are:

Answer 1

Move the creation of the MediaPlayer instance to the onCreate method. This will make your application run:

// creating instance of media player
MediaPlayer mp; 
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.ljudman__grenade);

Also, if you're trying to start a new instance of your activity upon the button click I believe this is the correct way to do it:

startActivity(new Intent(p1.this, p1.class));

Answer 2

Try this:

Button btn1=(Button)findViewById(R.id.xBtn1);

btn1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        final MediaPlayer mp1=MediaPlayer.create(getBaseContext(), R.raw.fruit_dance);  
        mp1.start();
    }
}

Answer 3

    //inside toggle button 
    toggleButton = (ToggleButton)findViewById(R.id.sound);
    final MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.theme);
    if(toggleButton.isChecked())
        mp.start();
    toggleButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            if(!toggleButton.isChecked()){
                mp.pause();
            }
            else {
                mp.start();
                mp.isLooping();
            }
        }
    });

Answer 4

mp.start() should be before starting a new activity.

      btnSound.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
            mp.start();
            startActivity(new Intent(currentActivityName.this, newActivityName.class)); 

            }
        });
