is fine to open a new fragment in fragment?

I want to separate logic fragment from activity but the problem is I make api call and save data in fragment. And when user click a item in fragment. I need to send parcelable data to other fragment to show detail info about item.
Is launching fragment in fragment anti pattern for android ?
I would like to hear some opinion about this matter.

Yes, is totally an anti-pattern, remember that you need to see the Activity as a container and fragments as independent sub-screens, so is the Activity responsibility to manage the fragments. I.e.: If you have a Post activity you can have a PostText fragment, a PostImage fragment and all of that is manage by the activity, every fragment is attached to an Activity.

It is not a common practice to have a nested fragment inside a fragment even it can be done. However, it would be better to have an activity as the centric container for all your fragments. You can use EventBus (GreenRobot / Otto) to separate the concerns and do all the API calls in another class and send the results by subscribing to this event.

Refreshing a fragment view from MainActivity

So I currently have an app that has 4 tabs (fragments). They are fragments A,B,C,D, in that order.
Fragment A is the first view opened (along with B because viewPager loads the view before and after the current view).
When I click a button in Fragment A, it sends Data back to MainActivity and then sends that data out to Fragments B and C.
However, this is where the issue comes into play. Since Fragment B was already called, the View isn't updated once I click the button and send the data over, but Fragment C is because the view wasn't called before.
Is there any way that I can remedy this?

You can do it a few ways right.
Just set the data to the fragment and have it update its views
Have all the fragments like B and C register themselves to recieve data from the MainActivity and when MainActivity gets it's data set you tell all the registered receivers of the new data
Recreate the fragment
Use an event bus and tell all subsribers of the new data and MainActivity, Fragment B would get notified of new data. Fragment C would get its data when created by MainActivity
I think this list is pretty endless tbh
The key here is the fragments need to fetch the data from the actvitiy aswell as be updated by the activity. In which case you need to break your UI update behaviour out of onCreateView and into its own updateUI() function. updateUI(MyData) can then be called from onCreateView and also called in a setMyData() on the fragment. Just make sure you check the isAdded flag in setMyData.
This pretty much says it all:
http://developer.android.com/training/basics/fragments/communicating.html

I used a simple fragment communicator that allows the activity to call the fragment, and the same for a fragment to talk to the activity.
You can change the views with the new data based on calling the method from within the activity. The way I do it is set the fragments in the activity then pass them into the page adapter this way I can call the methods within the fragment and implement the fragmentcommunicator interface on the fragments.
You can honestly even avoid the interface if you want, but if you are going to include the same method in all the fragments to talk to them it is easiest.
If you show code, I can show you a quick example.

how to save my fragment content? how to refresh my fragment?

I have 2 fragments which are called from the action bar of an activity. Both are gridviews, the first one displays applications with a dedicated adapter, and the second one displays a file list with another adapter. My problem is that when I launch a file then when I back to my activity I switch from one fragment to another, when I come back to the previous one, its content disappears. And when I rotate tablet I have the some problem, because my Fragment restart so for this I think that removing fragment give the possibility to create a new Fragment up to date. How can I save and reload data in my fragment.
How can I manage to update the content of the first fragment while coming back from the second one ? And how to remove fragment after the rotation in order to recreate the Action with new Fragment? I asked this questions but I don't have any responses. the code is given below

If your data is just strings or integers, you can make use of shared preferences to store and retrieve data.

Solution to your first problem -how to save fragment state
Use setRetainInstance(true) in you fragments onCreate() *it prevents your fragment from destroying and hence recreating.
Add your fragment to back stack
declare your adapter globally in fragment and resuse it when you get back.
when, you get back to fragment its onCreateView() method will be called directly. hence initialize your adapter in onCreate() method and use it in onCreateView().
Solution to your second problem -how to update fragment content
For this you can use interface. create interface in your second fragment and implement it in your first fragment. prefer this doc for this,

Activity/Fragment to Activity/Fragment to Activity/Fragment

Looking for a best practices solution to this issue.
Activity1 contains Fragment1 with a spinner of valid products
Activity1 contains an action bar menu option 'products' which launches Activity2 containing Fragment2 (list fragment).
From Fragment2 you can add/edit products using Activity3/Fragment3.
Changes made in Fragment3 I am getting back to Fragment2 with ActivityResult, and I know I could also achieve the same with an Interface.
The question is: What is the best way to get changes made in Fragment 3 reflected in the Fragment1 spinner?
I know I could reload the spinner values in Fragment1 in onResume() but if I didn't make any changes in Fragment3 this would be unnecessary.

I would use an Observer pattern. Implement an Interface with something like
public void onInputChanged(yourStuff);
let your first Fragment implement this Interface and Add the Fragment to a Listener Pool.
and from your Activity where the change happened, do something like
EventManager.fireOnInPutChanged(yourData)
EventManager would b the calls your listeners sign up to.
like this you wont need Activity forResult and you always know if something has changed.

How to make call backs between Fragments of the same Ativity

I have 4 tabs in an Activity.
Each of them is a Fragment. And every Fragment has a ListView.
So, if i change the ListView in Fragment, it must change the ListView in all other Fragments ie.., Tabs.
The problem i face is while creating the interface instance.
It takes it's own onClick() method.
In case i want a callback to the parent activity i could have done that by overriding onAttach. But how to make a callback to a Fragment?
From Developers site:
Often you will want one Fragment to communicate with another, for example to change the content based on a user event. All Fragment-to-Fragment communication is done through the associated Activity. Two Fragments should never communicate directly.
So, make a callback to the Activity which in turn makes a callback to other fragments??
Thank You

It's pretty simple,all You need is steps below:
1) From onClick method in your first fragment make a function call of activity:
((IYourActivityInterface) getActivty()).activityMethod();
2) In your activity find fragment by tag or id and run it's method:
public void activityMethod(){
Fragment tabFragment = getFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag("second_fragment");
// or Fragment tabFragment = getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.frag);
if (tabFragment!=null){
((IFragmentInterface) tabFragment).fragmentMethod();
}
}
Hope this is what you are looking for.)
