Change activity is not folder based object. It's a CabinetMember instead, so you can only assign it to the root folder. 

Try to get the root folder first (containerRef is the context ref):

Folder folder = FolderHelper.service.getFolder("/Default", containerRef);

And then call the assignLocation:

FolderHelper.assignLocation((FolderEntry) changeActivity, folder);
