Android intent data return null

I am starter at Android and now I want to transfer data using intent from one activity to another.
First activity will collect datas and give it to second. but on second the data returns null. So have some errors on there. Here are my code.
public void previewStack(final Context context, final CreateStackNewActivity createStackNewActivity, final Stack stackDetails) {
Map<String, String> options = new HashMap<String, String>();
if(stackDetails.getStackId() != -1){
options.put("stack_id", String.valueOf(stackDetails.getStackId()));
}
int index = 1;
for(StackLineNew stackLine : stackDetails.getLines()){
options.put("title" + index, stackLine.getTitle());
options.put("line_type" + index, Integer.toString(stackLine.getLineType().intValue));
options.put("title" + index, stackLine.getTitle());
if (stackLine.getBody().indexOf("file:/") == -1 && stackLine.getBody().indexOf("content:") == -1) {
options.put("description" + index, stackLine.getBody());
if (stackLine.getLineId() != -1) {
options.put("line_id" + index, Integer.toString(stackLine.getLineId()));
}
}
index++;
}
Call<GenericAPIResponse> call = Hype4DAPI.previewStack(stackDetails.getName(), stackDetails.getCategory(), Integer.toString(stackDetails.getLines().size()), options, "");
call.enqueue(new Callback<GenericAPIResponse>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<GenericAPIResponse> call, Response<GenericAPIResponse> response) {
if(response.isSuccessful()) {
GenericAPIResponse saveStackResponse = response.body();
System.out.println(saveStackResponse);
Toast.makeText(context, saveStackResponse.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
createStackNewActivity.saveInProgress = false;
createStackNewActivity.somethingHasChanged = false;
createStackNewActivity.updatePostButtonState();
Intent itnt = new Intent(createStackNewActivity, StackDetailsPage.class);
itnt.putExtra("stackId", stackDetails.getStackId());
itnt.putExtra("isPreview", "true");
itnt.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
createStackNewActivity.startActivity(itnt);
} else {
System.out.println(response.errorBody());
Toast.makeText(context, response.errorBody().toString(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<GenericAPIResponse> call, Throwable t) {
t.printStackTrace();
}
});
}
And the code of second activity
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_stack_details);
final Intent intent = getIntent();
final String stackId;
if (intent != null) { //Null Checking
stackId = intent.getStringExtra("stackId");
isPreview = intent.getStringExtra("isPreview");
stackTitleStr = intent.getStringExtra("stackTitle");
saveLine = (HashMap<String, Object>)intent.getSerializableExtra("saveLine");
}
else{
stackId = null;
}
On second activity, I have all variables are null. isPreview, stackTitleStr, saveLine are all null.
So anyone please help me quickly.

first you should not create the intent in the onResponse callBack method but create a static method in your StackDetailsPage activity that return the intent it needs. With that, this activity "said" to the other ones whats it needs, and it avoid duplicate string extra keys. use this :
//in StackDetailsPage activity
public static Intent getIntent(Context context, String stackId, String...)
{
Intent intent = new Intent(context, StackDetailsPage.class);
intent.putExtra("stackId", stackId);
...
return intent;
}
and then in onResponse method do that :
startActivity(StackDetailsPage.getIntent(context,stackDetails.getStackId(), ...))

Google Play: update prices from IInAppBillingService

I created a class for working with subscriptions in the store.
In the beginning I receive from the server the list of subscriptions with the prices
The code is working and on most devices there is no problem.
But some users do not recive prices. It's like there's no response from the server. I've studied examples of implementation in Google documentation, but I can not understand where I can have problems in the code.
Part of my code:
public class BillingActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
RelativeLayout imageLayout;
View payButton;
// WebView payWebView;
// TextView useCodeButton;
ProgressBar progress1;
ProgressBar progress2;
ProgressBar progress3;
IInAppBillingService inAppBillingService;

setContentView(R.layout.activity_billing_subscription);
price_1monthTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.price_1monthTextView);

relative_1month.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

if (MainActivity.myAccount.getUniqid() == null) return;
if (subscription1m != null) {
try {
Log.d("my", "purchase..." + subscription1m.storeName);
purchaseProduct(subscription1m);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Log.d("my", "purchase error = " + e.toString());
}
}
}
});

}
}
}

my problem was the bit depth of the X variable priceAmountMicros
The price from playmarket is multiplied by a 1000000 , and Kazakh tenge has exchange rate = 1 USD= 331,3 KZT.
And if i have price 18 000 KTZ and * 1000 000.
For price variable I must use long type

List ImageView repeating same image when shared

I have a listView that is supposed to accept a shared message and image where the image is placed within the ImageView. This feature works for just the first message, but once an image is shared, each message received after that initial one becomes a copy of that same image even though the blank image placeholder was already set, which is just a one pixel black png:
holder.sharedSpecial.setImageResource(R.drawable.image_share_empty_holder);
An example is below:
The green textbox is the recipient. They have recieved a shared image from the yellow textbox. The yellow textbox then simply sends a normal message and I have set another image as a placeholder for normal messages: holder.sharedSpecial.setImageResource(R.drawable.image_share_empty_holder);
The same previously shared image takes precedence. I have used notifyDataSetChanged() so as to allow for the updating the adapter so that it would recognize not to use the same image, but to no avail.
How can I reformulate this class so that the image shared is only displayed with the proper message and not copied into each subsequent message?

I have gone through your code and this is common problem with listview that images starts repeating itself. In your case I think you have assigned image to Imageview every if and else if condition but if none of the condition satisfy it uses the previous image.
I would suggest to debug the getview method and put break points on the setImageResource. I use volley for these image loading and it has a method called defaultImage so that if no url is there the image is going to get the default one. So add that default case and see if it works.
If any of the above point is not clear feel free to comment.

android: How to wait for listener to complete before continuing?

I'm using the socialAuth plugin to connect a user to linkdin within my app. I have the connection set up correctly and retrieves data. However, I'm unsure how I can get my main activity to wait until the socialAuthListeners have fired and finished. I know a little about threading but I haven't used it with listeners before. Here's my code:
public class LinkdinAuth {
private static final String TAG = "TEST";
// SocialAuth Components
SocialAuthAdapter adapter;
ProgressDialog mDialog;
private Context context;
private boolean loggedIn = false;
private Bundle LinkdinData;
public LinkdinAuth(Context C){
this.context = C;
LinkdinData = new Bundle();
adapter = new SocialAuthAdapter(new ResponseListener());
}
public void adapterAuthorize(View v){
adapter.authorize(v.getContext(), Provider.LINKEDIN);
}
private final class ResponseListener implements DialogListener
{
public void onComplete(Bundle values) {
String providerName = values.getString(SocialAuthAdapter.PROVIDER);
Log.d("Main", "providername = " + providerName);
mDialog = new ProgressDialog(context);
mDialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
mDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
//Get profile information
adapter.getUserProfileAsync(new ProfileDataListener());
// get Job and Education information
mDialog.show();
adapter.getCareerAsync(new CareerListener());
loggedIn = true;
Log.d("Main", "LOGGED IN = " + loggedIn );
Toast.makeText(context, providerName + " connected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onBack() {
Log.d("Main", "Dialog Closed by pressing Back Key");
}
#Override
public void onCancel() {
Log.d("Main", "Cancelled");
}
#Override
public void onError(SocialAuthError e) {
Log.d("Main", "Error");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
// To receive the profile response after authentication
private final class ProfileDataListener implements SocialAuthListener<Profile> {
#Override
public void onExecute(String provider, Profile t) {
Log.d("Sign Up", "Receiving Data");
mDialog.dismiss();
Profile profileMap = t;
LinkdinData.putString("Validated ID", profileMap.getValidatedId() );
LinkdinData.putString("First Name", profileMap.getFirstName());
LinkdinData.putString("Last Name", profileMap.getLastName());
LinkdinData.putString("Email", profileMap.getEmail());
LinkdinData.putString("Country", profileMap.getCountry());
LinkdinData.putString("Language", profileMap.getLanguage());
LinkdinData.putString("Location", profileMap.getLocation());
LinkdinData.putString("Profile Image URL", profileMap.getProfileImageURL());
}
#Override
public void onError(SocialAuthError arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
private final class CareerListener implements SocialAuthListener<Career> {
#Override
public void onExecute(String provider, Career t) {
Log.d("Custom-UI", "Receiving Data");
mDialog.dismiss();
Career careerMap = t;
//get education
Log.d("Main", "Education:");
if(careerMap.getEducations() != null){
for(Education E: careerMap.getEducations()){
Log.d("Main", "School = " +E.getSchoolName() );
Log.d("Main", "Major = " + E.getFieldOfStudy() );
Log.d("Main", "Degree = " + E.getDegree() );
Log.d("Main", "Start Date = " + E.getStartDate() );
Log.d("Main", "End Date = " + E.getEndDate() );
}
}
Log.d("SignUp", "Career");
if(careerMap.getPositions() != null){
for(Position P: careerMap.getPositions()){
LinkdinData.putString("Company Name", P.getCompanyName() );
LinkdinData.putString("Job Title", P.getTitle() );
Log.d("Main", "Industry = " + P.getIndustry() );
Log.d("Main", "Start Date = " + P.getStartDate() );
Log.d("Main", "End Date = " + P.getEndDate() );
}
}
}
#Override
public void onError(SocialAuthError e) {
}
}
public boolean isLoggedIn(){
return loggedIn;
}
public Bundle getLinkdinData(){
return LinkdinData;
}
So, as you can see. I have 2 listeners that get data after authorization goes through. And my main activity makes creates an instance, calls the adapterAuthroizeMethod and then if the user logs in a flag is set. Then getLinkedData is called. However I would like it to wait until I know the listeners have fired before calling getlinkdinData. Here's what my Main Activity does after a button press:
L.adapterAuthorize(v);
loggedInWithLinkdin = L.isLoggedIn();
Bundle B = L.getLinkdinData();
Intent i = new Intent(getBaseContext(), UserRegistration.class);
i.putExtra("linkdin bundle", B);
//startActivity(i);
Any ideas?
thanks

Well, not a recommend solution but more of a hack.
Here is what you can do.
Wrap the aync call around this construct :
AtomicBoolean done = new AtomicBoolean(false);
Global ans; // the return value holder
try{
result = someAsyncCall(query, new Thread()); // this new thread is for listener callback
result.setResultListener(result -> {
// do something with result.
ans = result.getAns() ; // set global ans
done.set(true);
synchronized (done) {
done.notifyAll(); // notify the main thread which is waiting
}
});
}
catch (Exception e ) {
Log(e);
}
synchronized (done) {
while (done.get() == false) {
done.wait(); // wait here until the listener fires
}
}
return ans; // return global ans

Android in-app billing - exception when pressing buy, and then pressing back from the purchase screen

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start service com.problemio.BillingService#405704f0 with Intent { act=com.android.vending.billing.RESPONSE_CODE cmp=com.problemio/.BillingService (has extras) }: java.lang.NullPointerException

It specifically mentions these lines in my class:
Caused by:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.problemio.ExtraHelpActivity.prependLogEntry(ExtraHelpActivity.java:561)
at com.problemio.ExtraHelpActivity.logProductActivity(ExtraHelpActivity.java:569)
at com.problemio.ExtraHelpActivity.access$4(ExtraHelpActivity.java:565)
at com.problemio.ExtraHelpActivity$ExtraHelpPurchaseObserver.onRequestPurchaseResponse(ExtraHelpActivity.java:187)
on line 561 I have this code:
private void prependLogEntry(CharSequence cs) {
SpannableStringBuilder contents = new SpannableStringBuilder(cs);
contents.append('\n');
contents.append(mLogTextView.getText()); // Line 561
mLogTextView.setText(contents);
}
on line 569 I have this code:
private void logProductActivity(String product, String activity) {
SpannableStringBuilder contents = new SpannableStringBuilder();
contents.append(Html.fromHtml("<b>" + product + "</b>: "));
contents.append(activity);
prependLogEntry(contents); // Line 569
}
By the way, which log is this? Is it really needed? Maybe its worthwhile to comment out these methods?
In any case, the other line the error points to is 187 and here is the code for that:
#Override
public void onRequestPurchaseResponse(RequestPurchase request,
ResponseCode responseCode) {
if (Consts.DEBUG) {
Log.d(TAG, request.mProductId + ": " + responseCode);
}
if (responseCode == ResponseCode.RESULT_OK) {
if (Consts.DEBUG) {
Log.i(TAG, "purchase was successfully sent to server");
}
logProductActivity(request.mProductId, "sending purchase request");
} else if (responseCode == ResponseCode.RESULT_USER_CANCELED) {
if (Consts.DEBUG) {
Log.i(TAG, "user canceled purchase");
}
logProductActivity(request.mProductId, "dismissed purchase dialog");
// This is line 187 right above this comment.
} else {
if (Consts.DEBUG) {
Log.i(TAG, "purchase failed");
}
logProductActivity(request.mProductId, "request purchase returned " + responseCode);
}
}
So you see, it keeps having a problem on this logging thing. What is this log? Where can I see it? How can I fix it so it doesn't make errors?
I am not certain, but maybe the bigger issue is that request is null. Why would the request possibly be null here?
