pleas, idk what to do!

You can only have a "case" as part of a "switch".

srry idk what you mean i am a nubbie......

You have a number of "case" statements. Java language says you can only have a "case" as part of a "switch". You don't have a "switch" statement. I don't know how to make this clearer. Google Java switch.
Ps I'm on a proper PC, not a mobile phone, so you don't need to speak in text message code.
