How to move to another activity using bottom navigation bar using kotlin in android studio? [duplicate]

//Here is my java code

I want to create both navigation drawer and bottom navigation in the same activity. I created XML design now I have to write java code for both. Bottom navigation is working perfectly but navigation item clicklistener is not working. I created fragments for navigation drawer and also for bottom navigation. When I click the items in navigation drawer it's not redirecting to respective fragment. The given clicklistener for navigation drawer is not at all working.

Solution:
Try the following steps to get it working:
Step1: Implement onNavigationItemSelected as shown below:
.... extends AppCompatActivity implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
Step2: Use the method generated by the interface as:
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.your_drawer_item_id:
....
....
case R.id.your_drawer_item_id:
....
....
}
}
Step3: In your class declare a Global variable:
public NavigationView navigationView;
Step4: In your onCreate() initialize the variable as:
navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.your_nav_view);
Finally: Setup the navigationView:
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
That's it.
Hope it works.

Try it.

You can use on the same activity using a method that recive a MenuItem parameter like this:
private void myClickItem(MenuItem item){
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.bottom_home:
// DO SOMETHING
break;
case R.id.drawer_main:
// DO SOMETHING
break;
}
}
Then, call like this:
BottomNavigationView bottomNavigationView = findViewById(R.id.bottom_navigation);
bottomNavigationView.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(item -> { // using lamda
myClickItem(item); //call here
return true;
});
NavigationView navigationView = findViewById(R.id.nv);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(item -> {
myClickItem(item); // call the same method here
drawerLayout.closeDrawers(); // bonus: hide navigation after click
return false;
});
You don't need to modify your xml res, it'll work fine.

After including Relative layout in the Drawer layout options in the menu don't respond to click

I created navigation drawer across multiple activities. In xml I have a Drawer layout. Before including relative (or others) layout in it, options in the menu were clickable (going to other activities). However, after including layout, it stopped going to other activities (options are not clickable).
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<include
layout="#layout/app_bar_main2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main2"
app:menu="#menu/activity_main2_drawer" />
<include
layout="#layout/main2_image"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
And code for Main2Activity:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
#SuppressWarnings("StatementWithEmptyBody")
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
//here is the main place where we need to work on.
int id=item.getItemId();
switch (id) {
case R.id.nav_camera:
Intent h = new Intent(Main2Activity.this, Main2Activity.class);
startActivity(h);
break;
case R.id.nav_gallery:
Intent g = new Intent(Main2Activity.this, Settings.class);
startActivity(g);
break;
case R.id.nav_slideshow:
Intent s = new Intent(Main2Activity.this, Allergy2.class);
startActivity(s);
break;
case R.id.nav_manage:
Intent t = new Intent(Main2Activity.this, Instruction.class);
startActivity(t);
break;
}

Why not using Fragments instead of Activities!!
To clear out your question you said that you want to switch between multiple activities and these all activities have the same NavigationDrawer Layout!
If yes its a very bad practice...you can use Fragments instead of each activity you've created in the NavDrawerMenu... TODO that follow me:
First you will create your MainActivity with the Navigation drawer as normal then in the method onNavigationItemSelected here you will begin the transactions between the fragments instead of Intent as follows:
#SuppressWarnings("StatementWithEmptyBody")
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
//here is the main place where we need to work on.
int id=item.getItemId();
switch (id) {
case R.id.nav_camera:
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.main_frameLayout, new
BlankFragment1()).commit();
break;
case R.id.nav_gallery:
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.main_frameLayout, new
BlankFragment2()).commit();
break;
case R.id.nav_slideshow:
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.main_frameLayout, new
BlankFragment3()).commit();
break;
}
NOTE: you surly know that these fragments must be the child of an activity so main_frameLayout is the id of FrameLayout that the fragments are placed in in the activity you placed the NavigationDrawer in which is the MainActivity as follows:
app_bar_nav_drawer.xml
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_toStartOf="#+id/toolbar_filter_button"
android:gravity="center|start"
android:textColor="#android:color/white" />
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/main_frameLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

What's probably happening here is that your drawer is shadowed by the additional children you've created in the DrawerLayout.
To fix this, in the onCreate method of your Main2Activity, get a reference to your NavigationView and bring it to front:
NavigationView navigationView = findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.bringToFront();

If you added CoordinatorLayout and then inside -> AppBarLayout as it's child in app_bar_main2 with Toolbar, then you better to add your contents inside the CoordinatorLayout or maybe inside a NestedScrollView which is a child of the CoordinatorLayout.
The problem why they're not clickable is that the DrawerLayout cannot recognize this layout as it's child:
<include
layout="#layout/main2_image"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
So, put the contents of this layout inside CoordinatorLayout and it's child NestedScrollView.

Neither onNavigationItemSelected nor onOptionsItemSelected is called

I have a double-drawer layout set up and am trying to handle selecting items inside the drawers. The way I have it set up though, I can see that neither onNavigationItemSelected nor onOptionsItemSelected is getting called when I tap something on the menu (I put a log statement right inside the functions). I'm also not totally clear which of those functions should be called.
EDIT: It looks like onOptionsItemSelected() is being called after all, but whichever item I click on, I always get the same id. So maybe it's only allowing me to click some other layer?
There are a lot of other questions similar to this, but none of the answers have been helpful to me. I'd appreciate any insight you may have.
Here is the relevant code inside my onCreate() function in MainActivity.java:
// Adding Toolbar to Main screen
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.drawer_open, R.string.drawer_close);
drawer.addDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
NavigationView leftNavigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.notifications_view);
leftNavigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(new NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Log.i("left", "left"); // this is never called
// Handle left navigation view item clicks here
int id = item.getItemId();
switch(id) {
case R.id.emerg_con_menuitem:
break;
case R.id.ride_hist_menuitem:
Log.i("I'm hit", "I'm hit");
intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, loc_report.class); // The action I want to happen when this menu item is tapped
MainActivity.this.startActivity(intent);
break;
case R.id.settings_menuitem:
break;
}
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
});
NavigationView rightNavigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
rightNavigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(new NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Log.i("right", "right"); // this is also never called
// Handle Right navigation view item clicks here.
int id = item.getItemId();
Log.i("I am firing", "I am firing");
switch(id) {
case R.id.emerg_con_menuitem:
break;
case R.id.ride_hist_menuitem:
Log.i("I'm hit navigation", "I'm hit navigation");
intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, loc_report.class);
MainActivity.this.startActivity(intent);
break;
case R.id.settings_menuitem:
break;
}
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.END);
return true;
}
});
// Adding menu icon to Toolbar
ActionBar supportActionBar = getSupportActionBar();
if (supportActionBar != null) {
supportActionBar.setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.ic_notifications);
supportActionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
supportActionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
}
And the onOptionsItemSelected() that is being called, although not on the correct menu:
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main_menu, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here.
Log.i("I'm hit options", "I'm hit options"); // also never called...what is going on??
int id = item.getItemId();
switch(id) {
case R.id.emerg_con_menuitem:
break;
case R.id.ride_hist_menuitem:
Log.i("I'm hit options", "I'm hit options");
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, loc_report.class);
this.startActivity(intent);
break;
case R.id.settings_menuitem:
break;
case R.id.menu_navigation:
drawer.openDrawer(GravityCompat.END); /*Opens the Right Drawer*/
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
Here is the main view activity_mail.xml:

app:menu="#menu/notifications" />
...
The main menu with the clickable icon to open the drawer:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<group android:checkableBehavior="single">
<item // this is the item that's being called on a click
android:id="#+id/menu_navigation"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_menu"
android:title="#string/action_notifications"
android:orderInCategory="100"
app:showAsAction="always" />
</group>
</menu>
and the stuff inside the drawer (the right-hand one):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:id="#+id/emerg_con_menuitem"
android:title="Emergency Contacts"
/>
<item
android:id="#+id/ride_hist_menuitem"
android:title="Ride History" />
<item
android:id="#+id/settings_menuitem"
android:title="Settings" />
</menu>

Ok, I think I figured this out. I'm still having trouble with the right-drawer links, but I got the left-drawer links to work. It was a layering problem--so I was clicking on the main_menu item (which contains the clickable icon that makes the drawer open) instead of the menu items underneath. To fix this, I added this line of code to fix the order:
NavigationView leftNavigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
leftNavigationView.bringToFront(); // <- added this line
And then the OnNavigationItemSelectedListener actually fires as expected.

Cannot load Fragments from Navigation Drawer items

I have found a lot about this around but I really can't solve my problem. I have spent hours in this but nothing.
I have a Navigation Drawer Activity made with Android Studio 2.1.1 templates. Of course I want to change the view of my app, when I click on a item in the menu, showing different Fragments. This is the code that I have in the MainActivity:
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.nav_camera) {
Context context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence text = "Hello toast!";
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
toast.show();
new gaussFragment();
} else if (id == R.id.nav_gallery) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_slideshow) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_manage) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_share) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_send) {
}
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
When I click on the first item of the navigation drawer (the one with the id R.id.nav_camera) I can see the toast but the new Fragment is not appearing. I am using this code in gaussFragment():
public class gaussFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_gauss, container, false);
}
}
Of course as you can see here the fragment_gauss.xml is its relative layout having this code:
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="info.androidhive.tabsswipexx.gaussFragment">
<!-- TODO: Update blank fragment layout -->
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:text="#string/hello_blank_fragment" />
</FrameLayout>
How could I solve this?
The content_main is the first thing that I see when the app launches. Should I try to add something like
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
and somehow load there my fragments?

If you're using the Navigation Drawer template provided by Android Studio then in the navigation Drawer main activity xml you'll find something like :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout

android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:openDrawer="start">
<!-- The main content view -->

<!-- the navigation drawer the comes from the left-->
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView

If you take a closer look there you'll see that it consistst of two main parts that I have commented for you. One is for the navigation drawer stuff and the other is the main content wiew stuff. If you ctrl+click on layout="#layout/app_bar_main" you'll see that another xml opens which is the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context="copsonic.com.SoundExchange.demoApp.MainActivity">
<!--Main View tool bar-->
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<!--The content that will be displayed in the main view when the navigation drawer is not opened-->
<include layout="#layout/content_main" />
<!--Floating Action Button Stuff-->
<android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton
android:id="#+id/fab"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|end"
android:layout_margin="#dimen/fab_margin"
android:scaleType="center"
android:src="#mipmap/ic_rx_tx"
android:saveEnabled="false"
app:backgroundTint="#000000"
android:adjustViewBounds="false" />
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
There you'll see 3 main parts, one for the tool bar, one for the Floating Action Button control and finally one for the content that will be displayed in the main view when the navigation drawer is not opened, this is the one you care about. If you ctrl+click in <include layout="#layout/content_main" /> You'll see a third xml were you must add a Fragmet container. In the end it's something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
tools:showIn="#layout/app_bar_main"
tools:context="copsonic.com.SoundExchange.demoApp.MainActivity">
<!-- A fragmet container to dynamically swap between fragmets-->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</RelativeLayout>
So after all this from your main activity code you just have to do two things, first manage which fragment is going to be seen first, you do this in the OnCreate method by adding :
FragmentTransmitter initialFragment = new FragmentTransmitter();
// Check that the activity is using the layout version with
// the fragment_container FrameLayout
if (findViewById(R.id.fragment_container) != null) {
// this check allows you not to load the default fragment unless
//it's the first time you launch the activity after having destroyed it
if (savedInstanceState != null) {
return;
}
// Create the fragment that is seen the first time your app opens
//pass useful info to the fragment from main activity if needed
//(it is recommended not to do this in the constructor, so you have to do it through a Bundle)
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putSerializable("ModulationType",aModulation);
initialFragment.setArguments(args);
// In case this activity was started with special instructions from an
// Intent, pass the Intent's extras to the fragment as arguments
//initialFragment.setArguments(getIntent().getExtras());
// Add the fragment to the 'fragment_container' FrameLayout
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.fragment_container, initialFragment).commit();
}
And then the second thing is handle properly which fragment will be displayed each time an option is selected in the navigation drawer
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.nav_camera) {
Context context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence text = "Hello toast!";
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
toast.show();
FragmentTransmitter Gauss= new new gaussFragment();
//pass useful info to fragment if needed
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putSerializable(getString(R.string.ModulationType),aModulation);
Gauss.setArguments(args);
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, Gauss,"TAG_GaussFragment"); //pacing a tag is not mandatory but it is pretty useful if you want to know later which fragment is being displayed in the fragment container
//transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
} else if (id == R.id.nav_gallery) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_slideshow) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_manage) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_share) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_send) {
}
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}

PreferenceActivity with Navigation Drawer Throws Null Pointer Exception

I had a PreferenceActivity which was working fine. Then, I decided to add a navigation drawer to it, and edited the layouts according to my other activity layouts which also have working navigation drawers. However, after doing that, my PreferenceActivity stopped opening and started throwing a NPE on start. I can't even open that activity anymore. Problem is in onCreate, obviously, and also in an onClick method as stated in the logcat. Yet, there are two onClick's in this activities onCreate, and I'm not seeing how those result in a NPE, since they are the exact same in my other working activities. My layout xmls are seperated into 3 xmls according to the default DrawerLayout implementation. Without further due, here are the codes and xmls:
PreferenceActivity:
public class FirstYearCoursesActivity extends PreferenceActivity
implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
private AppCompatDelegate mDelegate;
Toolbar toolbar;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
getDelegate().installViewFactory();
getDelegate().onCreate(savedInstanceState);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_first_year_courses);
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar((toolbar));
Window window = this.getWindow();
window.clearFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_TRANSLUCENT_STATUS);
window.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_DRAWS_SYSTEM_BAR_BACKGROUNDS);
window.setStatusBarColor(this.getResources().getColor(R.color.colorPrimaryDark));
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.prefs);
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view2);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
View headerView = navigationView.getHeaderView(0);
ImageButton logoutButton = (ImageButton) headerView.findViewById(R.id.logoutButton);
logoutButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(FirstYearCoursesActivity.this, LoginActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
if (drawer.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.START)) {
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
final DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
final Handler handler = new Handler();
if (drawer.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.START)) {
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
}, 200);
super.onPause();
} else {
super.onPause();
}
}
private void setSupportActionBar(#Nullable Toolbar toolbar) {
getDelegate().setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
}
private AppCompatDelegate getDelegate() {
if (mDelegate == null) {
mDelegate = AppCompatDelegate.create(this, null);
}
return mDelegate;
}
#Override
public boolean onPreferenceTreeClick(PreferenceScreen preferenceScreen, Preference preference) {
String key = preference.getKey();
switch (key) {
case "math119":
Intent intent = new Intent(FirstYearCoursesActivity.this, Math119Activity.class);
startActivity(intent);
break;
default:
Toast.makeText(this, "Other Click", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
}
return super.onPreferenceTreeClick(preferenceScreen, preference);
}
#SuppressWarnings("StatementWithEmptyBody")
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// to be filled
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.nav_camera) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_gallery) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_slideshow) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_manage) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_share) {
} else if (id == R.id.nav_send) {
}
return true;
}
}

EDIT:
One thing worth mentioning is that I triple checked the activity and it's adapter that leads to this PreferenceActivity on list item click. I reversed all my Drawer Layout implementations, and I was able to open this PreferenceActivity through parent activity. Navigation Drawer code, or layouts are the ones messing with it. I'm getting the listview.onclick(adapter) NPE because my list item click on parent activity goes to a null reference, which in this case it the PreferenceActivity itself. Also debug didn't show me anything null in PreferenceActivity's onCreate, except savedInstanceState.

I was able to reproduce the same NPE using your code and fixed it by replacing the addPreferencesFromResource call (note that it's deprecated) using a fragment instead as described in these threads:
Android: Preference Fragment with a Navigation Drawer's Fragment
What to use instead of "addPreferencesFromResource" in a PreferenceActivity?
Although, on my version, the preferences view overlaps the toolbar and I am not sure what the activity layout should be to fix that, maybe it will be OK in yours.
