Android - Activity Not Found Exception

Question

I am using startActivity to call another Activity and I get the "Activity Not Found Exception". Here is my code:

  TextView textView = (TextView) itemClicked;
  String strText = textView.getText().toString();
  String key = "symptom";
  Intent mIntent = new Intent(symptomActivity.this, symptomRemedyActivity.class);
  Bundle mBundle = new Bundle();
  mBundle.putString(key, strText);
  mIntent.putExtras(mBundle);
  startActivity(mIntent);

Here is the Logcat output:

INFO/ActivityManager(59): Displayed activity com.android.homeopathy/.HomeopathyActivity: 5542 ms (total 39089 ms)
INFO/ARMAssembler(59): generated scanline__00000077:03545404_00000004_00000000 [ 47 ipp] (67 ins) at [0x3283e0:0x3284ec] in 627000 ns

INFO/ActivityManager(59): Starting activity: Intent { cmp=com.android.homeopathy/.symptomRemedyActivity (has extras) }

Here is the debug window output:

symptomRemedyActivity is another activity in my project. Is there something I need to do like importing symptomRemedyActivity so that startActivity can see symptomRemedyActivity, to remove this "Activity Not Found Exception"?

I know this is an old post, but it's on top of the google search at the moment, so for anyone who would come here later: ActivityNotFound can be caused by unhandled exceptions in your onCreate in the activity you're trying to create. It took me a while to notice that I was causing a nullPointerException there, because I wasn't looking for it.
