        {
            private ListView _contactsView;
            private List<Contact> _contacts;

        protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
        {
            base.OnCreate(bundle);

            // Set our view from the "main" layout resource
            SetContentView(Resource.Layout.Main);

//not able to fire event
            FindViewById<Button>(Resource.Id.add).Click += (s, e) =>
            {
                var intent = new Intent(this, typeof(EditPhoneDetailsActivity));
                base.StartActivity(intent);
            };

            _contactsView = FindViewById<ListView>(Resource.Id.homeListViewMain);
            if(_contactsView!=null){
                _contactsView.ItemClick += (s, e) =>
                    {
                        var intent = new Intent(this, typeof(EditPhoneDetailsActivity));
                        intent.PutExtra("SelectedContactId", _contacts[e.Position].Id.ToString());
                        base.StartActivity(intent);
                    };
            }

        }
        protected override void OnResume()
        {
            base.OnResume();
            _contacts = new ContactManager().GetContacts();
            _contactsView.Adapter = new MainActivityAdapter(this, _contacts);
        }
    }
