android studio - self destructing app - getFragmentManager - error

  1. for public class InboxFragment extends ListFragment uses import android.support.v4.app.ListFragment;

  2. The proj wont compiles as the sectionspageradapter returns a fragment based on import android.app.Fragment. i replaced the reference with android.support.v4.app.ListFragment

@Override
    public Fragment getItem(int position) {


        return new InboxFragment();
    }
  1. now the mainactivity expression is failing
mSectionsPagerAdapter = new SectionsPagerAdapter(this, getFragmentManager());

SectionsPagerAdapter is expecting a import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager but the getFragmentManager() which is located in the activity.java how can i fix this the getFragmentManager function is in the sdk

Try get*Support*FragmentManager() instead if you are using the support libraries.
