Navigation Drawer - Redirected Activity does not have Left Menu

Hello I want to create a click event with Navigation Drawer Activity in Android Studio. When I click Gallery in left menu I redirected it to Gallery activity with intent. It is okey it works but there is no left menu in Gallery activity. I want all redirected activities have left menu. How can I do this?

drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;

}
I only changed this with adding intent line.Everything else is default code when I chose NavigationDrawerActivity.
public class GalleryActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_gallery);
}
}

Yes you can do this with activities also.
As activities are little bit hard or heavy in case of loading view and staring screen. that's why fragments are mostly preferred way with navigation drawer.
You can do
Create Base activity which have drawer and extend that activity in rest of activities. you can check implementation here and here
2nd option can be create main activity with navigation drawer and in content part of that load all fragments from the menu. For that you can check here

Because your GalleryActivity has a different layout.
If you want to preserve everything but the content of the main window i suggest you to use a fragment for the gallery instead of an activity

Error: Cannot find symbol variable

I watched a tutorial from this guy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SUvA1fXaKw
At the end (about 9:55) he wrote down:
if(fragment != null) {
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.content_main, fragment);
ft.commit();
I renamed my content_main in activity_main_menu1_start_seite and I thought I could just replace the content_main with activity_main_menu1_start_seite, but then it says "cannot find Symbol variable activity_main_menu1_start_seite"
Maybe you Need my whole Code.
I marked you the error as the Blockquote.
Sorry for any issues (I am new to this site)

The R class is generated based on the names and content of files in the res subfolder of your project. If Android Studio does not do this automatically, you can force a manual build by clicking the Build button on the toolbar.

Which xml contains an ID of activity_main_menu1_start_seite?
Renaming the XML file only affects the R.layout values, and include tags in the other xml files.
If it can't find R.id.activity_main_menu1_start_seite, then nothing contains android:id with that name. Specifically, you need a ViewGroup (such as a FrameLayout) within activity_main_drawer.xml with that value

Cannot resolve symbol 'fragment' Android Studio

I'm trying to add fragments to a navigation drawer.
But I have the error: can not resolve the 'fragment' symbol ...
I added: import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
And checked on Grandle for compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.3.1'

You are trying to assign a Fragment Object to an non-defined property.
You should declare a Fragment Object as a the top property, so it could be accessible to all methods for you transactions.

How to use Android NavigationDrawer to create other fragments?

It's my first Android project. I need to create a sliding menu to start different pages. Then I find in Android Studio 1.4 there is a default "Navigation Drawer"Activity for us to use.Here is the default image
So i want to click different items to start different fragments(i think it's fragments not activities). How can I add the code to start?
` I think I should add code here
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.nav_camara) {
// Handle the camera action
} 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;
}`
Here is all the mainactivity:

DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
}'
Here is main layout:
<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"
app:headerLayout="#layout/nav_header_main2" app:menu="#menu/activity_main2_drawer" />

You're on the right tracks, this is how I'm doing it (example of 1 fragment only, others are the same).
case R.id.nav_feedback: handleFeedback();
break;
I like to have methods that clearly show by their name what they're doing; also I try to delegate some things into private methods to keep my code cleaner. On this item clicked, we need to handle feedback, and that method looks like this:
private void handleFeedback() {
changeToFragment(FeedbackFragment.newInstance());
try {
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(R.string.feedback);
} catch (NullPointerException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Now there's a method called changeToFragment, should be obvious what it does:
private void changeToFragment(Fragment fragment){
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.content_navigation_drawer, fragment)
.commit();
}
Of course, there's a Fragment class called FeedbackFragment, and be sure that you either use android.app.Fragment and getFragmentManager or android.support.v4.app.Fragment and getSupportFragmentManager. DO NOT MIX these, otherwise you're gonna have a bad time. Refer to this question to see their differences and which one you'll wanna use. I personally opted for the one from the support library.
I'll leave it up to you to implement the fragment classes, I hope this code was understandable for you.

Navigation drawer template in Android Studio 1.4

I use the Navigation drawer template on Android Studio 1.4 (the one with activity_main.xml, app_bar_main.xml, content_main.xml, nav_header_main.xml)
I was able to change it (icons, methods,...) to feed my needs,
The problem is that I want all my activities to have the same navigation drawer, so in each Java file of my activities, I extend the activity containing the navigation drawer. It didn't work.
So tried to I include the layout of the activity which contains the navigation drawer. And it's not working too.
Can you give me some suggestions how to make it work?

The best solution would be to use only one Activity. All your content would be in Fragments. When the user selects an item in the navigation drawer, the Fragment displayed by the Activity is swapped out. This way you'll also have a smooth animation for the drawer, as the Activity containing the drawer is not finished.
