import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.View;

public class TimeTravelActivity extends Activity {

public String targetYear;

private NetworkConnectionReceiver receiver = new NetworkConnectionReceiver();

@Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_time_travel);

Intent intent = getIntent();
targetYear = intent.getStringExtra("EXTRA_YEAR");
EnergySource source = (EnergySource)intent.getParcelableExtra("EXTRA_ENERGY");

}

@Override
protected void onResume(){
    super.onResume();
   IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter("android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE");
  registerReceiver(receiver, filter);
}

 @Override
protected void onPause(){
    super.onPause();
}

}

If you created the intent filter in the previous challenge, it wont recognise it till now, so you can try and proceed to next task
