Create main.xml


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello"
android:layout_width="match_parent"/>
<TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
