How to create variable from mobile element?

I am attempting an automated test using appium java, and trying to create a variable for an element, but the test always fail.

If i do the following:

System.out.println(driver.findElement(By.id("android:id/message")))

it will print the text from the box.

If i attempt the followings, a "NoSuchElement" error will be displayed:

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("android:id/message"));
System.out.println(element.getText());

or

MobileElement element = (MobileElement) driver.findElement(By.id("android:id/message"));
System.out.println(element.getText());

How should i declare a variable in order to be used later on the test?

Try this:

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("android:id/message"));
String print = element.getText();
System.out.println("Print my text " + print);
