My apps Splashscreen fails on android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich

I currently have a simple app in the market, now I tried installing it on an Android 4.0 device. But it fails after my Splashscreen closes. I send a rapport and got this as feedback:

Crash
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
Thread.stop()

and 

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
at java.lang.Thread.stop(Thread.java:1076)
at java.lang.Thread.stop(Thread.java:1063)
at com.lars.PSVWebView.SplashScreen$1.run(SplashScreen.java:35)

this is the code, since last edit:

package com.lars.DrinkRecOrder;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;

public class SplashScreen extends Activity {

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.splash);

        Handler handler = new Handler();
        handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {

                Intent intent = new Intent();
                intent.setClass(SplashScreen.this, DrinkRecOrderActivity.class);
                }{
                /* start the activity */
                startActivity(new Intent("com.lars.DrinkRecorder.splashscreen.DrinkRecorderActivity"));
            }
        }, 500);

    }
}

So this is my new code... no errors, but doesn't work either, my app crashes at startup. By the way... same splashscreen code, different app

This was the answer! 

package com.lars.DrinkRecOrder;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;

public class SplashScreen extends Activity {

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.splash);

        Handler handler = new Handler();
        handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {

                /* start the activity */
                startActivity(new Intent("com.lars.DrinkRecOrder.splashscreen.DrinkRecOrderActivity"));
            }
        }, 5000);

    }
}

You can use this method:

Handler handler = new Handler();
        handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {

                Intent intent = new Intent();
                intent.setClass(SplashScreen.this, NextActivity.class);
                }
                /* start the activity */
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        }, SPLASH_SCREEN_TIME_IN_MILLISECONDS);

I think it's far better and elegant than Thread.sleep()

Read the documentation on Thread.stop().

This method is deprecated. because stopping a thread in this manner is unsafe and can leave your application and the VM in an unpredictable state.

Throws UnsupportedOperationException.
