Call a Fragment from Activity on back pressed - android

I have a viewpager, and I'm using FragmentPagerAdapter. Now, the tab 0 of the FragmentPagerAdapter has an option that takes the user to a fragment, call it fragment B --It replaces the fragment of tab 0 with Fragment B, within the viewpager itslef. This Fragment B has an option that opens up an activity, now when I press back when in the activity, I'd like to go back to tab 0, rather than Fragment B. How do I achieve that?
Tab 0's fragment calling Fragment B:
public void onClick(View view) {
TagFrag f = new TagFrag();
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.note_container, f).addToBackStack(null).commit();
}

UPDATE 2:
This Repo demonstrates this answer with a concrete example (for Android Studio 1.0.1)
UPDATE 1: NOTE ANSWER EDITED: onActivityResult should be placed on FragmentB instead of FirstActivity
In FragmentTab0, add FragmentB ilike this:
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.note_container, f).addToBackStack(null).commit();
In FragmentB, Open the second activity using startActivityForResult
Intent intent = new Intent((FirstActivity)getActivity(), SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, 1234); // 1234 is the RequestCode
In SecondActivity, override onBackPressed
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK);
super.onBackPressed();
}
In FragmentB override onActivityResult and call [getFragmentManager().popBackStack()][2]
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == 1234) { // previously defined request code
// Make sure the request was successful
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
getFragmentManager().popBackStack(); // magic happens here.
}
}
}
Enjoy!

How to transition from activity 3rd to 1st?

I have a problem with Shared Element Activity Transition between activities. I have MainActivity, it has a recyclerview with boxes (recyclerview.horizontal). Each box when clicked will go to the corresponding activity. The problem that appears when I click on a box, I switch to the second activity, in the second activity I press a button to switch to the third activity. And here I swipe to right to return to the MainActivity with transition and I want it to transition right to the box corresponding to the 3rd activity in the recyclerview in MainActivity. So, my purpose is:
MainActivity (Shared Element Activity Transition)-> Second Activity ->
Third Activity (Shared Element Activity Transition)-> MainActivity
(exactly scroll to position for Third Activity in RecyclerView).
My MainActivity
I hope everyone offer me the solution. Thank you so much.
You can use startActivityForResult instead of startActivity in SecondActivity when you are going to start ThirdActivity.Like this :
Intent i = new Intent(this, ThirdActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(i, 1);
And when you are finishing your ThirdActivity
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
returnIntent.putExtra("activity_finish",true);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
If you use startActivityForResult() then it gives callback in the Activity who started it,so as soon as ThirdActivity finishes, it will return to the onActvityResult() in SecondActivity.Where you have to check result_code and request code like this :
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == 1) {
if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
boolean isActivityFinish=data.getBooleanExtra("activity_finish");
if(isActivityFinish){
// finish your Second Activity here
}
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
//Write your code if there's no result
}
}
}

How to choose which fragment to open from specific activity?

My mainActivity contains 5 fragments which you can switch through with tabs. The main tab shown on start is the third one (the one in the middle). I have a button in fragment #1 which opens activityTwo. What should I put in the onBackPressed method in activityTwo in order for it to bring me back to mainActivity with selected tab #1. I currently have this, but it opens mainActivity and shows the main tab (#3)
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY);
startActivity(intent);
ActivityTwo.this.finish();
}
How can I make it show tab #1 instead of tab #3?
Your first activity should still be on the activity stack, so you should not call startActivity again. Instead, you can use setResult to pass a value back to your first activity:
// Inside your second activity
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
setResult(RESULT_OK);
finish();
}
Then, from your first activity, replace startActivity with startActivityForResult, with a request code (any integer you want, as long as it's unique):
startActivityForResult(intent, YOUR_REQUEST_CODE);
Then override onActivityResult:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == YOUR_REQUEST_CODE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
// Code to select tab 1 here
// mTabLayout.getTabAt(0).select();
}
}
}
i think you are using view pager , so while you return from activity 2, use viewPager.setCurrentItem(page);
where page will be your tab no, (in this case it will be 2, since it starts with 0). Hope this helps, if not then please clarify a bit more.

Return result to Activity from DialogFragment

I am trying to do the following:
Show dialog fragment from an Activity (not Fragment);
Retrieve result in the Activity.
The problem is that onActivityResult in the Activity is not being called.
Here is how I am showing a DialogFragment
DriverRatingDialogFragment dp = new DriverRatingDialogFragment();
// this solution works well in case of showing dialog from a fragment
// but I have to show it from the Activity
// dp.setTargetFragment(getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.flContent), DriverRatingDialogFragment.REQUEST_CODE);
dp.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), DriverRatingDialogFragment.ARG_RATING);
And here is how I am trying to return result from DialogFragment:
Intent intent = new Intent();
// This solution works well in case of previously setting target Fragment,
// but I have to return result to Activity
// getTargetFragment().onActivityResult(
// getTargetRequestCode(), REQUEST_CODE, intent);
// and with this attempt App crashes
// this.onActivityResult(REQUEST_CODE, Activity.RESULT_OK, intent);
here is where I want to retrieve result in the Activity, but it doesn't get called:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == DriverRatingDialogFragment.REQUEST_CODE) {
// todo
}
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
What's wrong?
I start the DialogFragment the same way you do.
CreatePostDialog createPostDialog = new CreatePostDialog();
createPostDialog.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "create_post_dialog");
And I send back data using a public method in the activity rather than with intents.
((MainActivity)mContext).logout(Utils.getLocation(v));
The snippets above are copy pasted examples of my working code. Logout in this case is a public method in MainActivity that takes in a point and does what is needs with it.
you can use callback
1.define a callback in you dialog fragment
public Call mCall;
public interface Call {
void returnData(Data data);
}
2.on dialog fragment life circle
#Override
public void onDetach() {
super.onDetach();
mCall = (Call) getActivity();
mCall.returnData(data);
}
3.activity just implements Call
activity implements DiaFragment.Call
onActivityResult is there to receive informations after startActivityForResult is called, which is not your case.
What kind of datas you need to get from the dialog ?
DialogFragment is usually used in a fragment, not an activity. Look at alert dialog.

Close fragments on button click and return result?

On a click of a button within a fragment, is it possible to close the two fragments within the same activity and return the result of the fragment to another activity? One fragment is expecting input while the other fragment has information for the user to view and is not expecting input.
Also, my code worked prior to using fragments in the activity, however the fragments are no longer showing up when clicking the intent to go to the activity (NextActivity.class) that holds the fragments...does any happen to know why the fragments are not appearing?
Here is some of my code below
A piece from the original activity:
public class MessageList extends ListActivity {
private void createMessage() {
Intent i = new Intent(this, NextActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(i, ACTIVITY_CREATE); //this line is incorrect, right?
}}
Here is a snippet from a fragment class:
public class MessageEditorFragment extends Fragment {
confirmButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
getActivity().finish();
}}
Also here is the activity class that holds the fragments, just incase you want a look:
public class NextActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_next);
ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
Tab one = actionBar.newTab().setText("Message Editor");
Tab two = actionBar.newTab().setText("Information");
one.setTabListener(new MyTabListener(new MessageEditorFragment()));
two.setTabListener(new MyTabListener(new InformationFragment()));
actionBar.addTab(one);
actionBar.addTab(two);
}
public class MyTabListener implements TabListener{
Fragment fragment;
public MyTabListener(Fragment f){
fragment = f;
}}}
I deeply appreciate all and any help!! Please let me know if you need to see more code as well.. Thank you :)
When the Activity is destroyed by calling finish , both the fragments will be destroyed/closed.
So, Before you finish the Activity from fragment, you can pass the values to the Activity which started it.
When you start the Activity , You need to start the Activity for Result , to return back the result data from the Fragment/Activity
In your Activity declare a integer request code
int FRAGMENT_REQUEST_CODE = 1000;
Start the activity , as per your logic
Intent intent = new Intent(this,MainActivityEx.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, FRAGMENT_REQUEST_CODE);
Add a callback method onActivityResult to receive the result
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == FRAGMENT_REQUEST_CODE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
TextView textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
textView.setText(data.getExtras().getString("DATA"));
}
}
}
Now. In your Fragment, When you close the two Fragments , You can pass the data back to the caller Activity
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("DATA","Hai");
getActivity().setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK,intent);
getActivity().finish();

onActivityResult never invoked within Activity part of ActivityGroup

I'm using a TabActivity that calls an ActivityGroup. Tipical approach that brings problems.
Now I'm facing a problem with onActivityResult
in my Activity I have..
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.place_buttontab_community_media);
Button ButtonClick =(Button) findViewById(R.id.addPicture);
ButtonClick.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener (){
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
// request code
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
Log.i(TAG, "hi");
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
}
unfortunately onActivityResult is never invoked.
You should listen for the result in the ActivityGroup's onActivityResult(). When a result is received, you have to decide which Activity should receive it and call it's onActivityResult() method with the received values.
I recently encountered this, to consolidate Andras' and virtual82's answer and discussion above (Sorry I can't add comment due to my low rep):
If your activity is started inside an ActivityGroup, which is used by TabActivity for example, then only the ActivityGroup activity can receive method calls to onActivityResult when you start an activity with startActivityForResult(Intent intent, int requestCode) from an activity inside the ActivityGroup.
In my situation, I have a TabActivity that contains FragmentActivitys. A Fragment inside a FragmentActivity may start an activity for result.
In this case the Fragment needs to start the activity with TabActivity as the calling activity:
Intent doSomethingIntent = new Intent();
//getActivity() returns the FragmentActivity, so we need to get the TabActivity with getParent()
Activity tabActivity = getActivity().getParent();
doSomethingIntent .setClass(tabActivity , PostCommentActivity.class);
tabActivity.startActivityForResult(doSomethingIntent , DO_SOMETHING_REQ_CODE);
Then in onActivityResult of the TabActivity, pass the result back to the Fragment.
Activity currentActivity = getLocalActivityManager().getCurrentActivity();
//get the FragmentActivity in order to get the Fragment instance
if(currentActivity instanceof FragmentActivity){
FragmentActivity currentFragmentActivity = (FragmentActivity)currentActivity ;
//R.id.l_container is the layout/viewgroup that contains the Fragment
Fragment currentFragment = currentFragmentActivity.getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.l_container);
if(currentFragment != null){
//pass result to the Fragment!
frag.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
}
I realize that ActivityGroup, TabActivity and LocalActivityManager are deprecated in favor of Fragment and FragmentManager, but my project time constraint didn't allow me enough time to fully upgrade.
Hopefully this post will help someone in this situation, instead of the usual "don't do it" kind of response you see else where.
