How do you set/pass values from one screen (activity) to another? What I have in the R.layout.main view labeled Calculator contains the code for doing calculations. The main.xml contains the layout (view) of the main screen. I have created an options menu which has another screen which shows you setup (R.layout.setup). The dialogsetup.xml contains the layout (view) for it.
When you press the menu button, you get the options menu. If you select "Setup", then it will display the setup screen. Now what I need to do is take the values from the setup screen (radio button and text values) and place them in the main screen so that when you exit the setup screen and go back to the main screen, you can take those values and use them in your main code.

I am developing an application in which the user require to register first and than got the user page. For that i have made layout and the layout consist many fields, so, i have made part of layout and also made the separate activity for the each layout. The layout like address, phone, etc... After that i have wrote the code for calling an activity and it works fine. It means when i press the "Next" button the another page will come and it will also consist some textview ,edittext and previous and next button. Actually, i want something different like -- When the user fill the first form and he will proceed to next, the content written by the user should not gone when the user press "Next" button. The content should be there which was written by user. And same way i have have 6 pages like that way to complete the registration process. So, have you any idea to solve above problem? I really need your help because right now i stuck at this point. So, please any body help me out of this problem. I would appreciate your help. I am waiting for your reply.

This is an intermittent bug in one of my apps. I don't expect anyone to solve it immediately, but I'd appreciate any thoughts on how to start debugging!So, my app lets users edit an item (in the EditPage activity). When they press the Back key, the desired behaviour is that it saves their edits and returns them to the home page (the HomeList activity). The code for this is below. It works fine. Except.The bug is this. Some users report that sometimes when they reopen the application after a pause, they are seeing *not* the home page, where they left the application - but the previous edit activity. Crucially, they are also seeing the edit activity without their saved edits - effectively losing their most recent edits.I've been able to reproduce this myself. It only happens after the application hasn't been opened for a while. If I save something, minimize the application and reopen it straight away, it shows the HomeList activity just fine, and the edits have all been saved. But if I save something, leave it for a couple of hours and then reopen it, it shows the previous EditPage activity, without the saved edits (i.e. in the state that the EditPage activity was previously launched).
Any ideas, anyone? I had wondered whether it was due to the Back button being used to return the user to the HomeList activity - maybe Android thinks that the Back button means that the HomeList is not the most "recent" activity, instead the EditPage is. I'd like to carry on using the Back button if possible, though. And in particular, I'm puzzled why it only happens after the app has been idle for an hour or so, and not immediately? Is it something to do with Android's memory management?

I need a way to detect if this is the first time the user is ever opening the application, if so, start an activity. Then all previous application launches wouldn't start that activity. I've read in a few places about using preferences to accomplish this. Anyone got any ideas?

I have two activities. The first is a list where the user selects one of the items which takes them to a second activity showing the details of the item they selected. When the user clicks the back button I want the app to return to the first activity.
Is there anything special i need to do to make this happen?
Right now when I click the back button from the second activity it exits the app just like the home button would.
Here is how I am starting the Second Activity. startActivity(new Intent(getApplication(), SecondActivity.class)); finish();

I'm writing a bitmap editor and I'm trying to write an autosave feature. When onPause is called, I write the application state to an autosave file. As this takes between 0.1s and 1.5s, I've been advised this IO operation be performed in a background thread.
In the onCreate method of my activity, I check to see if the autosave file exists and, if it does, I open it.
Are there any scenarios I have to consider where the user can somehow leave the activity, the autosave thread starts and the user can return to the activity before the thread has finished? If so, how can I detect this and wait for the thread to finish before I check the state of the autosave file?
I was going to make it that, when the user backs out of my activity, they're asked to wait a second while the data is saved. This seems OK, but I can't do this when my activity is interrupted by something like a phone call.
Also, I'm a bit confused about how multiple versions of the same activity can be started as this makes dealing with autosaving more complex. Is there a way to make sure only one instance of my activity is allowed to run at a time?

I am using an Application object to store app-wide instance data--data that I need to remain in existence for the entire lifetime of the app, so the Application class seems like the proper place to put it. I have just finished reading this thread http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa... that goes into pretty good detail and receives confirmation from Googler hackbod as to how the Application class performs--and from that info it seems this strange behavior I am receiving should not be happening...
Basically, every once in a while when I resume my app in any of its Activities (it is still running in memory so onCreate is not called) I get NullPointerExceptions because instance variables in my Application class are returning null when I request them from my Activity (via a getter method in my custom Application class). It seems as if sometimes Android saves the states of my Activities but deletes all my instance variable data... This can't be an Android problem--there must be something wrong with my code.
Has anyone else ever ran into an issue of this kind? Any ideas as to what may be causing this? I'm not going to post my code here as that won't help anyone, but hopefully someone can point me in some helpful directions.

I'm writing an application consisting of several activities and, on restarts, I'd like the application to initially display the application's activity that was the last to display in the application's previous session.
I save information about the last activity in SharedPreferences and I'm trying to start that last activity with a call to startActivity(intent) from my Application's onCreate handler.
The problem is that if I don't set the intent's FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK, the result is a run-time exception message in logcat suggesting that I should set the flag. And if I set that intent flag, the correct activity gets started but doesn't fully initialize resulting in null pointer exceptions (which don't occur when I don't attempt to start the activity from my Application class).
CODE:...........
Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag. Is this really what you want?
How to correctly start a particular activity from the Application class's onCreate handler?

When i leave my app after pressing home button and then re launch it from menus it behaves in a strange way.Sometimes it launches the same activity on which i pressed home button.But sometimes it launches the first activity of my app. One reason for this could be that whenever system has memory shortage it clears any activities existing in But the strange thing is if i press back button from first activity it takes me back to the same activity on which i pressed home button and all other previous activities are also there(like if i press back button again previous activities also exist.)I haven't set any launching mode for any activity in my app(like single instance etc).What i don't need is that previous activities load on pressing back button on first activity.

I have an android application with a LOT of activities, think of something like a book where every page is a new activity. The user can make changes in each activity, for example highlight certain texts with different colored markers etc. and it's crucial that I'll remember this information as long as the application stays alive (and I don't want/need to remember any of this when it's not). As I understand the best mechanism for storing this kind of information is via onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) and onCreate(Bundle)/onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle) rather than lets say, the Preferences mechanism. My only problem is that the user can navigate backwards to previous pages (Activities) and the only way i know of achieving this is by calling finish() which of course kills the current activity without calling onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) and even if it did call it, the next time I would launch an activity representing that page it would be an entirely new instance. So my question is: Is there a way to go back to the previous activity without calling finish()? or, is there a better way to save this information? maybe through static variables?

I have an app which makes use of several layout-views. Every layout - view also got a class for it, which extend the Activity class. One class for example retrieves some database values whilst offering a search form to the user. Afterwards the user can select one of those values and he gets presented with another screen which gives similar options as the one selected. Anyways, I'd like for the first Activity to be able to send an array with data (Strings for example) to the second one. Right now I show an activity by using:
Intent i = new Intent(this, activitysName.class); startActivity(i);
I have no idea whilst using this construction how I can "initialize" the new object with the String array I want to pass to it. So how should this be achieved ? Should I be using something else instead of an Intent-Activity combination ?

In my Android app,I start a new activity with startActivityForResult(). I get the result in onActivityResult() perfectly. My problem is that there is a small bit of data that I know before I start the activity and I need that value to be available in onActivityResult(), too. I tried attaching it to my intent as an extra, but it wasn't attached to the intent that is available when the activity returns the result. I made it work by storing the data in a global variable, but I really don't like that approach. Is there a better, right way to pass data through an activity (instead of just to it)?

I have an activity which implements an OnItemClickListener.code...
However, I need to pass some objects from MyActivity1 to MyActivity2 --
I see there is an Intent.putExtra() for all the basic types, and I even see a Bundle which is a collection of basic types, but how can I pass a generic "Object" to MyActivity2 ?

I figured out how to pass a String value between activites thanks to this site, however I'm having trouble passing an image. What I'm trying to to is have a user click a button that opens the gallery and allows selecting of a picture. Then I have another button that opens another activity that displays an ImageView. I want to be able to have that ImageView's image be the chosen one from the previous activity.
Here is the class that has the button I'm clicking to open the gallery and retrieve the chosen image: code...
What I'm not sure about is in the OnActivityResult if I should pass the selectedImage or the chosenimage in the b.putExtra("bitmap", selectedimage); line. I tried both but I didn't see an image on the second activity. Also I wasn't sure in the PreviewScreen class if I'm setting the imageview correctly. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
