Now with the new version Android Studio you have to change from:

private OnCheckedChangeListener listener = new OnCheckedChangeListener()

To:

private CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener listener = new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener()

Your checkboxes can't be found. That's the reason why you get a NullPointerException. Use the command setContentView() in your onCreate() method to set your xml layout.

I suggest you to call:

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

in your onCreate method before binding the components. Please try it:

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
 cbActivate = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.cbActivate);
 ...
}
