Answer 1

Use

if(id.equals("abc"))

instead Of

 if(id == "abc")

Answer 2

Try this.. if id is int use like this id == 5. but id is String you should use id.equals("abc")

if(id.equals("abc")){           //Correction is here
            Intent i= new Intent(Slogin.this, Sales.class);
            startActivity(i);
        }else{
            Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, "Wrong id pass",                                                                            Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
            toast.show();
        }

== always just compares two references (for non-primitives, that is) - i.e. it tests whether the two operands refer to the same object.

However, the equals method can be overridden - so two distinct objects can still be equal......
