751 PointsShaking things up
howdy again, im doing the shaking things up part of the android crystal ball app and am getting errors in the code with ShakeDetector.java and MainActivity.java, its just one line on each where it doesnt like the @Override
for both errors it suggests the override be removed and on hover it states..
"The method onShake() of type new ShakeDetector.OnShakeListener(){} must override a superclass method"
ive even tried copying and pasting the project files but got the same error
help much appreciated

This worked for me.
