BackStack not navigating to the correct Fragment

Hello im trying to navigate between some fragments with addToBaackStack but having issues with it ,
Ok i will explain it in detail so there should be no confusuion
1 :- I have only one activity (main activity) which consist of all the other fragments and a fragment container to hold the fragments in it , i have implemented bottom navigation in the main activity ,where the bottom navigation have 5 main fragments home,following,upload,notification and profile my issues is related to the profile fragment
2 :- In the profile fragment i have some buttons like edit profile button which opens edit profile fragment but now when i presse back it should navigate back to the profile fragment which it is not doing ,its is navigating to the last fragment of the bottomnavigation (which can be any other of the main fragments for eg if my last fragment is following fragment then when i press back from the edit profile fragment it goes to the following fragment )but this not happens if i put a back arrow icon in edit profile fragment then when i click the back arrow it perfectly navigate me to the profile fragments as it is not related to addToBackStack
It shows that the issue is related with my bottom navigation but i dont know how to exactly fix it
Prifile_Fragment.java
editProfileButton.setOnClickListener(v -> {
Fragment edit_profile = new Edit_Profile();
assert getFragmentManager() != null;
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, edit_profile);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
});

public BottomNavigationView bottomNavigationView;

boolean flag = true;

Have you consider to use popBackStack ? You can try this.
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
final FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
if (fragmentManager.getBackStackEntryCount() > 0) {
fragmentManager.popBackStack();
} else {
finish();
}
}

How to change the title of fragment when press back?

I have 3 fragments, Home, Menu and orders they can be loaded by bottomnavigtioview items and the title shown by it as well
once navigate from Home to Orders then if you want to go back to Home From Orders the title still "Orders"
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
Fragment fragment;
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.navigation_home:
toolbar.setTitle(getResources().getString(R.string.title_home));
fragment = new HomeFragment();
loadFragment(fragment);
return true;
case R.id.navigation_menu:
toolbar.setTitle(getResources().getString(R.string.fragment_title_menu));
fragment = new ProductFragment();
loadFragment(fragment);
return true;
case R.id.navigation_orders:
toolbar.setTitle(getResources().getString(R.string.title_orders));
fragment = new OrdersFragment();
loadFragment(fragment);
return true;
}
return false;
}
};
private void loadFragment(Fragment fragment) {
// load fragment
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_container, fragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
}
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
context = this;
navigation = findViewById(R.id.navigation);
navigation.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener);
// attaching bottom sheet behaviour - hide / show on scroll
CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = (CoordinatorLayout.LayoutParams) navigation.getLayoutParams();
layoutParams.setBehavior(new BottomNavigationBehavior());
toolbar.setTitle(getResources().getString(R.string.title_home));
Fragment f = HomeFragment.newInstance();
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.frame_container, f)
.commit();
}`
I have Also Tried this but its not working
`
fragmentmanger.addOnBackStackChangedListener -> public void onBackStackChanged() {
}`

Instead of calling toolbar.setTitle in your onNavigationItemSelected method, move it to onCreateView of each fragment. When you navigate back to a Fragment, onCreateView is executed again.

It worked for me when calling it in onResume like this in each fragment:
if(getActivity()!=null) {
((MainActivity)getActivity()).setActionBarTitle
(context.getResources().getString(R.string.YOUR_TITLE));
this is the function setActionBarTitle in MainActivity
public void setActionBarTitle(String title) {
toolbar.setTitle(title);
}

Using onSaveInstanceState in BottomNavigationView's fragment replacing

I am trying to use onSaveInstanceState method to minimize the server capacity in my app. I am trying to avoid accessing the server everytime the user changes his/her bottom navigation view(now inferred to bnv).
(I only could find the examples of onSaveInstanceState when its rotating the phone)
I followed every fragment's lifecycle methods but onSaveInstanceState would not be called. I also figured out that when I replace the fragment in BottomNavigationView, let's say, fragmentA to fragmentB, fragmentA reaches onDestroyView when it is replaced. So why won't onSaveInstanceState be called??
I am stuck with this problem for days.. Could anyone give some advice?
My MainActivity codes.
public static final String TAG = "LifeCycles";
FragmentManager manager;
FragmentA fragmentA;
FragmentB fragmentB;
FragmentC fragmentC;
private BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener
= new BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.navigation_home:
manager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.testFrame, fragmentA).commit();
return true;
case R.id.navigation_dashboard:
manager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.testFrame, fragmentB).commit();
return true;
case R.id.navigation_notifications:
manager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.testFrame, fragmentC).commit();
return true;
}
return false;
}
};
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Log.w(TAG, "----- Activity: onCreate ------");
manager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentA = new FragmentA();
fragmentB = new FragmentB();
fragmentC = new FragmentC();
BottomNavigationView navigation = findViewById(R.id.navigation);
navigation.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener);
manager.beginTransaction().add(R.id.testFrame, fragmentA).commit();
findViewById(R.id.toActivity).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, SemiActivity.class));
}
});
}

Adding back button to fragment

I have a bottom navigation bar that contains 4 fragments and when a tab is selected a new instance of that fragment is loaded.
private BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener
= new BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
Fragment fragment = null;
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.navigation_home:
fragment = HomeFragment.newInstance();
break;
case R.id.navigation_cards:
fragment = CardsFragment.newInstance();
break;
case R.id.navigation_deals:
fragment = DealsFragment.newInstance();
break;
case R.id.navigation_settings:
fragment = SettingsFragment.newInstance();
break;
}
if (fragment != null) {
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.content, fragment);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}
return true;
}
};
Now in my HomeFragment there is a RecyclerView that On Item Select it opens a new Fragment:
myViewHolder.cardView.setOnClickListener(view -> {
System.out.println("clicked");
Fragment fragment = new TargetDetailsFragment();
FragmentTransaction ft = ((AppCompatActivity) context).getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.content, fragment).addToBackStack(null);
ft.commit();
});
I want to add a back button to the TargetDetails Fragments that takes you back to the home page when selected and I attempted doing that by implementing OnBackStackChangedListener in the Main activity
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
shouldDisplayHomeUp();
}
public void shouldDisplayHomeUp(){
//Enable Up button only if there are entries in the back stack
boolean canback = getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount()>0;
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(canback);
}
#Override
public boolean onSupportNavigateUp() {
//This method is called when the up button is pressed. Just the pop back stack.
getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStack();
return true;
}
}
but the problem is when I click on it its reloads the HomeFragment Again but I simply want it to go back to the saved instance of that Fragment

Here is my code that I have used for the ViewPager, the idea is to see if the current page number is 0 than to proceed super.onBackPressed(); otherwise go to the previous fragment:
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
if(vpPager.getCurrentItem()!=0) {
vpPager.setCurrentItem(vpPager.getCurrentItem()-1, true);
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}

By adding below code in your Activity.
The fragment back stack can be managed.
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
int count = getFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
if (count == 0) {
super.onBackPressed();
//additional code
} else {
getFragmentManager().popBackStack();
}
}

Hello #Bolu Okunaiya i think you should try this it will help you to manage backstack to desired fragment without loading same fragment again.
For Stop loading previous fragment you should use "add" instead of "replace" with your FragmentTransaction

Inside your MainActivity
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
//shouldDisplayHomeUp();
Fragment currentFragment = getActivity().getFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
if (currentFragment instanceof TargetDetails) {
Log.v(TAG, "your current fragment is TargetDetails");
popBackStackImmediate(); //<<<< immediate parent fragment will open,which is your HomeFragement
}
}
To use popBackStackImmediate() you need to *replace FragmentA with FragmentB and use addToBackstack() before commit().

How to keep fragments state like Instagram in Android?

I need to implement the UI of my app, like the Instagram one. I need to switch from different fragments, with the usage of the bottom navigation view, but I need to keep state of the fragments, like I left them. How Can I achieve this?
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
item.setChecked(true);
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.action_formation:
if (homeFragment == null) {
homeFragment = new HomeFragment();
}
displayFragment(homeFragment);
break;
case R.id.action_result:
if (introResultFragment == null) {
introResultFragment = new IntroResultFragment();
}
displayFragment(introResultFragment);
break;
case R.id.action_market:
displayFragment(new MarketFragment());
break;
}
return false;
}
public void displayFragment(final Fragment fragment) {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager
.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.container, fragment, fragment.getClass().toString());
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}

It's been a long time but I want to offer my open source library in github which implements the same UX of Youtube and Instagram:
https://github.com/ZachBublil/ZNavigator
You got to add this dependency to your gradle:
compile 'com.zach.znavigator:znavigator:1.0.0'
The only thing you have to do is to pass the list of fragments you want to be in the BottomNavigationView:
public class SampleActivity extends NavigationActivity {
private BottomNavigationView navigationView;
#Override
protected void onCreate(#Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
navigationView = (BottomNavigationView) findViewById(R.id.navigationView);
LinkedHashMap<Integer, Fragment> rootFragments = new LinkedHashMap<>();
rootFragments.put(R.id.tab1, new FirstTab());
rootFragments.put(R.id.tab2,new SecondTab());
rootFragments.put(R.id.tab3, new ThirdTab());
init(rootFragments, R.id.container);
navigationView.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
navigationView.setOnNavigationItemReselectedListener(this);
}
#Override
public void tabChanged(int id) {
navigationView.getMenu().findItem(id).setChecked(true);
}
}
If you want to open a new fragment as inner screen in one of the tabs you can do it by using ZNavigation class in the tab fragment:
ZNavigation.openChildFragment(getFragmentManager(),new ChildFragment());

just remember the active fragment, and use userVisiableHint to get active status in each fragment.
private Fragment currentFragment; // need to be init
private void switch2Fragment(Fragment target){
getFragmentManager().executePendingTransactions();
if(target.isAdded){
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().hide(currentFragment).show(target).commit();
} else {
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().hide(currentFragment).add(R.id.xxx, target).commit();
}
currentFragment.setUserVisibleHint(false);
currentFragment = target;
target.setUserVisibleHint(true);
}
private boolean isFragmentActive(Fragment target){
return target.getUserVisibleHint();
}
