  protected void onListItemClick(View view) {

    if(view == Shot){

        AlertDialog.Builder alertbox = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

        // set the message to display
          alertbox.setMessage("Please Get Ready");

    }    

Answer 1

ListView Shot = getListView();

In Shot you have the id for the listview and not for each item in the list.

    @Override
    protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);

 AlertDialog.Builder alertbox = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

        // set the message to display
          alertbox.setMessage("Please Get Ready").show();

    }

Or you could use ListView::setOnItemClickListener

public class PhotoListView extends ListActivity implements OnItemClickListener


ListView shot = getListView();
        shot.setOnItemClickListener(this);


@Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3) {
        AlertDialog.Builder alertbox = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

    // set the message to display
      alertbox.setMessage("Please Get Ready").show();


    }
