There are different approaches:

1) You could store the value in a static variable somewhere globally in your app (when you leave the activity = onPause) – works ok if your app activities run all in the same process, which by default is the case – unless specified differently in your manifest

2) or use the SharedPreferences (ref. to android dev docs).

3) If your one activity starts the seconds one right after, you could pass the value as an intent extra (ref. to android dev docs):

Intent intent = new Intent(this, A.class);
intent.putExtra("EXTRA_TEXT_TO_REMEMBER", editText.getText().toString());
startActivity(intent);
