If you still get errors: check if the compiler compliance level is 1.6 (instead of the default 1.5): Righclick on the project > properties > java compiler > compiler compliance level. (This fixes the "should override supertype methode" + "implements method" error)

Furthermore, if the libraries are not found: rightclick > properties > Android > Java Build Paths > Projects (tab) > add > add all.
