Help with java homework
this is my assignment that I have, this assignment code I've tried. But when I try to compile it I keep getting errors which I cant seem to find soloutions too:
Error says <identifier> expected for Line 67 public static void ()
Assignment brief
To write a simple java classMobile that models a mobile phone.
Details the information stored about each mobile phone will include
• Its type e.g. “Sony ericsson x90” or “Samsung Galaxy S”;
• Its screen size in inches;
You may assume that this a whole number from the scale 3 to 5 inclusive.
• Its memory card capacity in gigabytes
You may assume that this a whole number
• The name of its present service provider
You may assume this is a single line of text.
• The type of contract with service provider
You may assume this is a single line of text.
• Its camera resolution in megapixels;
You should not assume that this a whole number;
• The percentage of charge left on the phone e.g. a fully charged phone will have a charge of 100.
You may assume that this a whole number
• Whether the phone has GPS or not.
Your class will have fields corresponding to these attributes .
Start by opening BlueJ, creating a new project called myMobile which has a classMobile and set up the fields that you need,
Next you will need to write a Constructor for the class. Assume that each phone is manufactured by creating an object and specifying its type, its screen size, its memory card capacity, its camera resolution and whether it has GPS or not. Therefore you will need a constructor that allows you to pass arguments to initialise these five attributes. Other fields should be set to appropriate default values. You may assume that a new phone comes fully charged.
When the phone is sold to its owner, you will need to set the service provider and type of contract with that provider so you will need mutator methods
• setProvider () - - to set service provider.
• setContractType - - to set the type of contract
These methods will be used when the phones provider is changed.
You should also write a mutator method ChargeUp () which simulates fully charging the phone.
To obtain information about your mobile object you should write
• accessor methods corresponding to four of its fields:
• getType () – which returns the type of mobile;
• getProvider () – which returns the present service provider;
• getContractType () – which returns its type of contract;
• getCharge () – which returns its remaining charge.
An accessor method to printDetails () to print, to the terminal window, a report about the phone e.g.
This mobile phone is a sony Erricsson X90 with Service provider BigAl and type of contract PAYG. At present it has 30% of its battery charge remaining.
Check that the new method works correctly by for example,
• creating a Mobile object and setting its fields;
• calling printDetails () and t=checking the report corresponds to the details you have just given the mobile;
• changing the service provider and contract type by calling setprovider () and setContractType ();
• calling printDetails () and checking the report now prints out the new details.
Challenging excercises
• write a mutator methodswitchedOnFor () =which simulates using the phone for a specified period. You may assume the phone loses 1% of its charge for each hour that it is switched on .
• write an accessor method checkcharge () whichg checks the phone remaing charge. If this charge has a value less than 25%, then this method returns a string containg the message Be aware that you will soon need to re-charge your phone, otherwise it returns a string your phone charge is sufficient.
• Write a method changeProvider () which simulates changing the provider (and presumably also the type of service contract).
Finally you may add up to four additional fields, with appropriate methods, that might be required in a more detailed model.
above is my assignment that I have, this assignment code I've tried. But when I try to oompile it I keep getting errors which I cant seem to find soloutions too:

any answers.replies and help would be greatly appreciated as I really lost!
