It would really help if you provided a screenshot of your relevant blocks, so we can see what you are trying to do, and where the problem may be.

some questions:

1. what is ResetActivityStarterRunApp?

2. where is the RunApp.Activity property defined?

3. where do you call RunApp.StartActivity?

4. why is Package and Class identical?

5. what is OtherApp?

as explained in the link Using the Activity Starter 

Figuring out how to set the properties

If you can't find documentation for the activities you want to start, one way to figure out how to set the properties is to start up the activity manually and look at what appears in the Android System Log. For example, if you use YouTube to play a video, you'll see in the log:

I/ActivityManager( 86): Starting activity: Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW cat=[android.intent.category.BROWSABLE] dat=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ADwPLSFeY8 flg=0x3800000 cmp=com.google.android.youtube/.PlayerActivity }

If you can find the "cmp=" string, then the ActivityPackage is the part before the slash, and the ActivityClass is is the entire "cmp=" part, without the slash character. As in the YouTube example, there may also be "dat=" information that can specify with the DataUri property.

OtherApp is sure to run app. Package and Class is show button text and if not found app, so will go to Google Play. RunApp.StartActivity is there to go button on 'Download on Google Play' and 'Start app'. And ResetActivityStarterRunApp is reset all text on activity

ok, now you are trying to start an App Inventor app...

this looks fine as soon as your login name is xerrror10 and your project name is Dagbok and there is that app installed on that device, else you will get a" 601 error no corresponding activity was found"

Yes. It's a 1 run app. It's a more button to start a game.
