How to edit and get the updates of the editText input fields from another activity?

I'm trying to play around with two activities. Edit and View activity. I would like to get the inputs from the edit activity and show in the view activity. In the edit activity I have the ok/submit button, which approves the changes and take back to the view activity, in this case the input text fields should be updated with the entered data. If the cancel button is pressed, then obviously no changes being done and the user is being taken back to the view activity.
I've most of the implementations done right, but I can't get the entered data to be shown on the view activity. What am I missing?
This is my codes for edit and view activities.
ViewActivity.java

editButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override

openEditActivity();
}
});
Fname = FNInput.getText().toString();
Lname = LNInput.getText().toString();
email = emailInput.getText().toString();
}

I'm sorry this post is going to be lengthy.
When you want to do something like this, you have to follow some steps and follow them properly. which are:-
First, making yourself clear what you want to do exactly, that mean your goal.
Secondly, try to understand what you should do to achieve that goal, like - what thing might have need to do that, resources, tutorial (for this scenario) etc.
Finally let's start searching and learn how to do that.
Here, I can tell you where the problem is, you started learning but didn't completed the learning. I can see you just copied and pasted into two different activities without a reason.
Well, I am sharing what problems I found out from the above code of yours :-
Your ViewActivity.java should be consist of some TextView where you're intended to show your data from your EditActivity.java, which is not there.
You're sending Data with same key every time (another proof of copy pasting, not knowing what is happening) which is -
public static final String EXTRA_FNAME = "EXTRA_TEXT"; // use it as EXTRA_FNAME public static final String EXTRA_LNAME = "EXTRA_TEXT"; // use it as EXTRA_LNAME public static final String EXTRA_EMAIL = "EXTRA_TEXT"; // use it as EXTRA_EMAIL
When you are sending data to your view activity, you need to receive what you were sending by using getIntent() something like :- String s = getIntent().getStringExtra("EXTRA_FNAME"); which will return the value assigned to this key from your previous activity while sending to the present activity.
After receiving the desired value populate your TextView in the next line like this :- textView.setText(s); // fetched from getIntent() previously
For more information you can check this tutorial, which has showed how to pass and view data from one activity to another. Hope you understand.

very slow performance when i click a button on my android app

when i testing it on my mobile (huawei G8) in vertical view it takes like 5 second to click on any of this 4 buttons in my app
also it leave dark spot in the button for second or 2
in horizontal view it works faster
in emulator it also works fine

It's hard to know for sure without seeing the rest of the app, but this sounds like the new Activities that you are launching are probably doing too much work in their onCreate methods, or doing something heavy-weight in some other method on the UI thread during startup.
From the code you've shown, I think that it's not very likely that it's anything in your Home activity, unless that Activity has something intensive going on in it's UI thread.

Cannot find any obvious wrong from the code you have shown. So If there's no more other code there and problem still exist, I suggest that you should find it through a process of elimination. For example, delete all listener in onCreate and add just one, then keep trying.

OnClickListener on non-Mainactivity & change first activity

i've a problem. I want to make a app with a loggin activity and a main activity. (To the OnClickListiner later)
fist:
What ive done so far:
i've created a login. java and login.xml
login.java:
public class Login extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
Button btnStartAnotherActivity;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.login);
boolean hasLogedIn = true;
if (hasLogedIn) {
Intent i = new Intent(Login.this, MainActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
finish();
} else {
}
}
public void onClick(View view) {
//calling an activity using <intent-filter> action name
Intent inent = new Intent("android.name.MainActivity ");
startActivity(inent);
}
}
i've created a MainActivity.java and activity_main.xml
moreover i've some other java and xml files to make a materiel designed Tab view for my MainActivity.
i have 3 tabs thats how it looks so far
[![tab1 with buttons][1]][1]
-now i'be added to the first tab 3 buttons.
example of one button: (the others are the same just a other id )
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Kommt"
android:clickable="false"
android:textColor="#190707"
android:id="#+id/kommt"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/space" />
-So the app is running now without problems. ( All Tabs and there content is showing like i want it )
when i build the project the mainactivity is open first( see that link of the picture )
HOW TO SET: the login interface to be started once, when starting the app for the first time. After login is succesfully, then the mainactivity will always open. Thats my first problem. What should i add to the Login.java ? and how to set that the login.xml starts before the mainactivity ?
Second:
As i told you ive added some buttons. To test the buttons i've tried to implement a code for toast notification when clicking on button. But every time i build the project with the toast notifitcation code, the app doenst start anymore. Here the code for the toast notification i'm using:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity implements OnClickListener {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); // but my main_activity doesnt have buttons ... tab1.xml have b
Button kommtbutton;
kommtbutton= (Button) findViewById(R.id.kommt);
kommtbutton.setOnClickListener(this);}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
setContentView(R.layout.tab1); // not sure if this is right ive did it cause the buttons are in the tab1 layout and not main_activity
switch(v.getId())
{
case R.id.kommt:
{
Toast toast1 = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Eingestempelt",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast1.show();
break;
} ....}
here i have implemented all 3 buttons in a switch case.
It looks right but the onclicklistinier seems to kill my application before it can start. Maybe someone can help me.
i have following files:
Login.java, MainActivity.java, Tab1.java,Tab2.java,Tab3.java, SlidingTabsLayout.java, SlidingTabStrip.java and ViewPagerAdaper.
and i have this layouts.
acitivy_main.xml, login.xml, tab1,tab2,tab3.xml, toolbar.xml.
I'm not allowed to send pictures cause i'm new here.
Where have i do implement the code for the toast notification ?
thats my activity_main:xml

The buttons are in the tab1.xml. Where have i to acces them to make a Interaction ( show toast when pressing the button ) ? in the MainActivity.java or the Tab1.java or somewhere else ?
When i try to add toast notification my app just kills itself ...

You have to put all the findViewById and setContentView in the onCreate method or they won't do the job.
First point :
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity
{
// Layout elements
private Button kommtbutton = null;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Attach layout
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); // but my main_activity doesnt have buttons ... tab1.xml have b
// Retrieve layout elements
kommtbutton= (Button) findViewById(R.id.kommt);
// Attach listeners
kommtbutton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
// Do not use getApplicationContext(), this is an activity
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Eingestempelt", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
[...]
}
Second point :
public class LoginActivity extends Activity
{
// Layout elements
private EditText edit_login = null;
private EditText edit_password = null;
private Button btn_login = null;
// Class variables
private SharedPreferences prefs = null;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Check if the user is already logged in
prefs = getSharedPreferences(getPackageName(), MODE_PRIVATE);
if (prefs.getBoolean("isLoggedIn", false))
{
Intent intent = new Intent(LoginActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
return;
}
// Attach layout
setContentView(R.layout.login);
// Retrieve layout elements
edit_login = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_login);
edit_password = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_password);
btn_login = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_login);
// Attach listeners
btn_login.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
// Retrieve information
String login = edit_login.getText().toString();
String password = edit_password.getText().toString();
// Do job
boolean canConnect = true; // TODO
if (canConnect)
{
// Update prefs
prefs.edit().putBoolean("isLoggedIn", true).commit();
// Move to activity
Intent intent = new Intent(LoginActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
else
{
// Update prefs
prefs.edit().putBoolean("isLoggedIn", false).commit();
// Display error message
Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this, "Wrong crendentials", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
});

I need the application to pass some string value associated to it to be passed into the text as soon as the user clicks on the image.How do i use the click Listeners in android to achieve the following task.
It is not necessary to fill in the code snippet that i have given.Any new ideas regarding the design are most welcome.

U can set text as Tag to the Image so that u can get that text onClick event. Tag can be set either in XML or dynamically.
public class TrialActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
ImageView img = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
img.setTag("YOur text");
img.setClickable(true);
img.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
String urText= arg0.getTag().toString();
EditText edt = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
edt.setText(urText);
}
});
}
}
This code demonstrates how to achieve your requirement dynamically.

and here is a ss of what my form looks like if that helps
Thank you for any help you can give. Still learning a bit on how to do some of this stuff so i apologize if this has been asked before but been searching for two days and can't seem to find what i need to do this.
Ok for those who want to know here is the corrected code. The only code i needed to modify was the code for the Java file so thats the only code i will post.
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class Contactform extends Activity{
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.contactform);
final EditText name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
final EditText addy = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText2);
final EditText cell = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText3);
final EditText questions = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText4);
Button email = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button30);
email.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v){
//TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent email = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
/* Fill it with Data */
email.setType("plain/text");
email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"ladsoffice#lads-to-leaders.org"});
email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Lads to Leaders/Leaderettes Questions and/or Comments");
email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
"name:"+name.getText().toString()+'\n'+"address:"+addy.getText().toString()+'\n'+"phone:"+cell.getText().toString()+'\n'+'\n'+questions.getText().toString()+'\n'+'\n'+"Sent from the Lads to Leaders/Leaderettes Android App.");
/* Send it off to the Activity-Chooser */
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(email, "Send mail..."));
}
});
}
}
Ok so just a quick explaintion. you have to declare your edit text in the code after your oncreate method. It must say final in front of it as well. Then you input your strings into the intent for EXTRA TEXT. also i added the '\n' in single quotes. this action will act as an enter button giving each item its own line so for example i only wanted name on one line so i did name+mystring+'\n'. this will make your name and string appear on one line and then go down one line for the next line. Hope this makes since and it helps someone else out.

You can put all data inside email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Sent from the Lads to Leaders/Leaderettes Android App");
First Get all EditText by ID here in oncreate Like
EditText name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editext1);
EditText address = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editext2);
EditText phone = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editext3);
Then put all data
email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
"name:"+name.getText().toString()+"address:"+address.getText().toString()+"phone:
"+phone.getText().toString());
Enjoy :)
