EditText to phone memory?

I have found a very good solution to my problem on another post (Save entered text in editText via button)

however when I implement this code, my application crashes. Any advice would be appreciated, the error I receive is that the "String or" in the method makeTag() is not used. Please have a look

private Button savenotebutton1;
private SharedPreferences savednotes;
private EditText editText1;


protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.x1);

    savenotebutton1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.savenotebutton1);
    editText1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.noteEditText1);
    savednotes = getSharedPreferences("notes",MODE_PRIVATE);

    editText1.setText(savednotes.getString("tag", "Default Value")); //add this line

    savenotebutton1.setOnClickListener(saveButtonListener);
}

private void makeTag(String tag){
    String or = savednotes.getString(tag, null);
    SharedPreferences.Editor preferencesEditor = savednotes.edit();
    preferencesEditor.putString("tag",tag); //change this line to this
    preferencesEditor.commit();
}

public OnClickListener saveButtonListener = new OnClickListener(){

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        if(editText1.getText().length()>0){
        makeTag(editText1.getText().toString());    

        ((InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE)).hideSoftInputFromWindow(editText1.getWindowToken(),0);

        }
    }
};

}

You should replace this

 String or = savednotes.getString(tag, null);

With

 String or = savednotes.getString("tag", "Default Value")

Under your makeTag() function

Update: Error is about you are not register your activity into manifest.xml file.
