            }
        });


    }

}

It was working when in highscores xml was this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
- <RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/widget32" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
  <TextView android:text="This is where you would show any options your game has" android:id="@+id/TextView01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> 
  </RelativeLayout>

but when i change it back - error dosen't disapperaed/ What happend? How can i solve this problem?

You must have changed something else. Your Highscores activity class is extending ListActivity, which requires a ListView to be present in your layout xml with the id android.R.id.list, e.g.

     <ListView  
     android:id="@android:id/list"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
     android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
     />

It shouldn't have worked either way. Your HighScores Activity shouldn't extend ListActivity if you aren't using a ListView in your layout. Instead, extend from Activity.

Your error says {game.main/game.mainmenu.Highscores}: java.lang.RuntimeException: Your content must have a ListView whose id attribute is 'android.R.id.list'. Your Highscores class is a listactivity, then you have to add a list. Try changing the class to an Activity.
