You will need to import Intent. If you are using Android Studio, you can pres Ctrl+Alt+L and select organize imports. Or, you can click on the Intent, press Alt+Enter and select import. If you are using Eclipse, I believe the command is Ctrl+Shift+O to organize the imports. If you want to type in the import manually, you can go to your imports at the top of your main Java file and type import android.content.Intent;

Hope this helps!
