Variables in Java are case sensitive, so textView and textview are different. Change your code to this:

TextView textview = new TextView(this);
textview.setTextSize(40);
textview.setText(message);

// Set the text view as the activity layout
setContentView(textview);

You've declared it as textview (lowercase "v") but are referencing it as textView (uppercase "v"). Pick one!

TextView textView = new TextView(this); // Change the "v" to uppercase
textView.setTextSize(40);
textView.setText(message);
