You can use getApplicationContext() or current class.this (means if your
class name is Abc then use like this Abc.this)

Intent.setClass needs a Context for the first argument. Replacing
cb.getContext with "this" causes a compiler error. Do you mean I should
call getApplicationContext?

Here's the full trace:
