Question

Code for passing float value from service to activity:

call.putExtra("floatvalue", fv);
call.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(call);

Code for getting float value in the activity:

Bundle extras=new Bundle();
float value = extras.getFloat("floatvalue");

The problem is no matter what is passed as the float value from the service, I get only 0.0 in the activity.

What is the problem with the code?

EDIT

I changed the code in the activity to

Bundle extras=new Bundle();
extras=getIntent().getExtras();
float value = extras.getFloat("floatvalue");

It didnt work.

Answer 1

Try this:

float value =  getIntent().getFloatExtra("floatvalue", 0.0f);

Since you added the float to your intent before starting it, you should get the float from that intent not from the bundle.
