From extending from AndroidApplication to Game

When you start a project with libgdx it automatically makes the class extend Android Application. I did not think about this until later and now I want to change it to the Game and Screen classes. But unfortunately without success...

My first question is, how to I change the android project?

    import android.os.Bundle;
import com.badlogic.gdx.backends.android.AndroidApplication;
import com.badlogic.gdx.backends.android.AndroidApplicationConfiguration;

public class AndroidClass extends AndroidApplication {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        AndroidApplicationConfiguration cfg = new AndroidApplicationConfiguration();
        cfg.useGL20 = false;

        initialize(new SplashScreen(), cfg);
    }
}

My second question: How do I change the deskop project: 

import com.badlogic.gdx.backends.lwjgl.LwjglApplication;
import com.badlogic.gdx.backends.lwjgl.LwjglApplicationConfiguration;

public class DeskopClass {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        LwjglApplicationConfiguration cfg = new LwjglApplicationConfiguration();
        cfg.title = "MyApp";
        cfg.useGL20 = false;
        cfg.width = 800;
        cfg.height = 480;

        new LwjglApplication(new SplashScreen(), cfg);
    }
}

Third question: How do I change the SplashScreen:

import com.badlogic.gdx.ApplicationListener;
import com.badlogic.gdx.Gdx;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.Texture;
import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.SpriteBatch;

public class SplashScreen implements ApplicationListener{

    @Override
    public void create() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    }

Thanks!

Game class in libgdx is itself an ApplicationListener.

You can create a class that extends Game and directly pass its object to initialize (for android) and LwjglApplication (for desktop). This way you can use setScreen without a problem.

The Game class is just an ApplicationListener. AndroidApplication and Game are not interchangeable classes as they accomplish two different things.

You need an AndroidApplication class to pass events on to your ApplicationListener classes. If you want a Game class in your app then you can always create your own.

public class Game implements ApplicationListener {

    @Override
    public void dispose () {

    }

    @Override
    public void pause () {

    }

    @Override
    public void resume () {

    }

    @Override
    public void render () {

    }

    @Override
    public void resize (int width, int height) {

    }
}
