You have to use setContentView(R.layout.main); before using findViewById().

If you don't do that, findViewById() will return null (since no view with that ID is in the current layout) and you will get a NullPointerException when trying to set the text on the TextView.

The correct version of onCreate() should look like this:

public void onCreate(Bundle i) {
    super.onCreate(i);

    setContentView(R.layout.main);
    Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.but);
    button.setText("Hey!!");
}

Put setContentView(R.layout.main) before creating the instance of Button. Like This:

    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    Button button=(Button) findViewById(R.id.but);
    button.setText("Hey!!");

you must put setContentView(R.Layout.main) before setting findViewById(R.id.but).Because it generates nullpointer Exception.
