java - Android - NullPointerException using ViewGroup

When I relocate from one Activity to another using just simple TextView - it works.
piece of code:

 private RMProject currentProject;
@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.open_proj);
    Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
    currentProject = bundle.getParcelable("current");
    TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.label_open_project);
    textView.setText("Project "+currentProject.getName());

}

But when I use another activity with the next code in onCreate() method - it doesn't work and I receive NullPointerException. In line #38. I checked, I received textView when used first piece of code.

public class EventsActivity extends Activity {
private RMProject currentProject;
private ListView listView;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    EventDBManager.init(this);
    ViewGroup contentView = (ViewGroup) getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.orm_event_list, null);

    listView = (ListView) contentView.findViewById(R.id.ormListView);
    Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
    currentProject = bundle.getParcelable("current");
    TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ormTextView);
    //38 line - next, which cause exception
    textView.setText("Project "+currentProject.getName());
    Button btn = (Button) contentView.findViewById(R.id.ormButtonAdd);
    setupButton(btn);
    setContentView(contentView);
}

}

I guess that issue with the components layout.
Here is my layout file:

            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:editable="true"
        android:text="Project name"
        android:id="@+id/ormTextView"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="90dp"
        android:textSize="20dp"/>

        android:id="@+id/ormButtonAdd"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Add " />
        android:id="@+id/ormListView"
        android:layout_above="@id/ormButtonAdd"


        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent" />

And exception that I've been received:

Answer

Your missing contentView reference in the following line

TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ormTextView);

So fix would be to replace it with

TextView textView = (TextView) contentView .findViewById(R.id.ormTextView);

Hope this helps
