    private SectionPagerAdapter mSectionPagerAdapter;

    private ViewPager mViewPager;


    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        mSectionPagerAdapter = new SectionPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());

        mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.container);
        setupViewPager(mViewPager);

        TabLayout tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tabs);
        tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(mViewPager);

        tabLayout.getTabAt(0).setIcon(R.drawable.ic_prayer);
        tabLayout.getTabAt(1).setIcon(R.drawable.ic_cam);
        tabLayout.getTabAt(2).setIcon(R.drawable.ic_person);

    }

    private void setupViewPager(ViewPager ViewPager) {
        SectionPagerAdapter adapter = new SectionPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
        adapter.addFragment(new Tab1Fragment());
        adapter.addFragment(new Tab2Fragment());
        adapter.addFragment(new Tab3Fragment());
        ViewPager.setAdapter(adapter);

And here's my LogCat

The line `mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.container);` causes the problem in the first place. Apparently you don't have a `ViewPager` with the id `container` in your XML layout file so it fails to find it. — Markus Kauppinen, Apr 25 '17 at 17:38

<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:id="@+id/container">

        </android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>

Just add the id in ViewPager in your activity_main.xml.

i did this and still didn't work – Dnique Apr 25 '17 at 19:41
if u have added the id then error must have change post that error. – sanidhya pal Apr 25 '17 at 19:50
ok, i just re-edit the code with the new error – Dnique Apr 25 '17 at 20:12
In your MainActivity.java you are writing `TabLayout tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tabs);` But you dont have any TabLayout in your activity_main.xml If you want to use TabLayout then add this in AppBarLayout and below toolbar `` – sanidhya pal Apr 25 '17 at 20:36
I just realize by reading your comment i made a mistake. for the bottom toolbar it wasn't labeled "TabLayout" just toolbar function. Thanks again – Dnique Apr 25 '17 at 21:16
