Answer 1

Declare your edittext before the Textchange listener :

et2 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText2);
et2.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count){
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    area = Math.PI * radius * radius;
    String name = Double.toString(area);
    et2.setText(name);
}
