public class MyActivity extends Activity {
// bla bla bla .......
//error 
myFc( getapplicationcontext());
// OK
myFc(MyActivity.this);

Q: How to find out the phone screen size?
A: (By length of display diagonale in inch -  Not to measure a diagonal of device!!!)

Q: What resolution has 720 x 1280 display?
A: (921600 pixels)

Q: What does it mean "240 dpi" screen density?
A: (Display have density 240 x 240  dots - "Tri-color LED etc." - per every physical (real) square inch. If you have icon 240x240 pixels, this will just occupy an area of one square inch on the display.)

Q: Phone have screen density 240 dpi. Image for 160 dpi screen density have size 128x 128 pixels. What will be the size of the image for 240 dpi screen density?
A: (Calculate the virtual pixels size.   128 * (240/160)  =  192.  You have to resize image to new size 192 x 192 physical pixels and put into folder drawable-hdpi (high) ~240dpi  for phone with screen density 240 dpi. ) or use density independend pixels 128dp x 128dp.

 

 

How set rounded corners and own styles ActivityMy.java

Button btn.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.back_button_answer);

\res\drawable\back_button_answer.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="//schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="rectangle" >
   <corners android:radius="10dip" />
   <!-- background -->
   
   <gradient
                android:startColor="#D6D7D6"
                android:centerColor="#E2E2E2"
                android:centerY="0.75"
                android:endColor="#D6D7D6"
                android:angle="270"
        />
   
   <stroke android:width="2dip" android:color="#fff"/>
</shape>

If you try function for checking internet connection you can disable internet on the emulator:
Settings - Wireless and networks - Mobile networks - Data enabled (checked - unchecked )

 public boolean isNetworkAvailable() {
        ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) 
          getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
        NetworkInfo networkInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
        if (networkInfo != null && networkInfo.isConnected()) {
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
