You are casting your TextView (R.id.widget39) to a Button and then trying to use it as one. This is why it force closes, and you should not use android.provider.Contacts anymore because it's been deprecated since 2.0, instead use ContactsContract.

        Button widget40  = (Button)findViewById(R.id.widget40);    
       
        widget40.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
