                    totaldetails.clear();
                    gi= commonlist.get(window);
                    Gid.setText(gi.getGroupName());
                    notedetails.addAll(gi.getNoteNameList());
                    problemdetails.addAll(gi.getProblemNameList());
                    totaldetails.addAll(notedetails);
                    totaldetails.addAll(problemdetails);

you can try to get the input stream to your resource by:

InputStream is = getResources().openRawResource(R.xml.my_xml);
....
xr.parse(new InputSource(is)));

Instead of :

 URL myurl=new URL("http://www.compliantbox.com/docprocessor/sync.php");
 ...
 xr.parse(new InputSource(myurl.openStream()));

Hope it helps:)
