205 PointsI'm really not sure at this point as this is my first small thing i've attempted on here. i assume somehow treehouse reads the open android studio project, so i just clicked check and it says "make sure you change the text, i've even copied exactly and pasted the lines and it doesnt work.

If what you have above is exactly what you have in the Challenge, then there is way too much code. If you are copying and pasting from Workspaces or an IDE based on the course videos, then the challenge will often fail as it is often just a bit different than the videos. Challenges are very specific and extremely picky. You'll find that instructions need to be followed explicitly or you will end up with a Bummer.
Here, only one thing should be changed in the challenge (No other code should be added). The instructions say to just "Change the text" and that's it. So, in the preloaded code for the challenge (also a good idea to remember to never add, alter, or delete any code that is preloaded unless specifically instructed to do so), it seems you've added a few lines to the Relative Layout.
So, you'll just need to reset the challenge to the original preloaded code and only change the text "I love Treehouse" to "Treehouse loves me!". Don't change, add, or alter anything else, and it will pass.
Keep Coding! :)

205 Pointswell i followed the instructions. it doesnt give any good feedback on what the problem is or how to fix it. so im just sitting here like... nothing is working

205 Pointsoh, i'm an idiot... i didn't know you could type in the websites code box.... haha. i thought i was supposed to code it into my Android Studio project...

7,934 PointsAre you sure that you are not doing something wrong? Because I just clicked on the "View Challenge" and literally changed the text and It worked fine for me.
