Question

I want fixed tabs at bottom such I can use the same tabs in each activity. I have a layout that shows the tabs at bottom but how can I add TextView above of that?

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();
    TabHost.TabSpec tabSpec;
    Intent intent;
    Resources resources = getResources();

    intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, FirstActivity.class);
    tabSpec = tabHost.newTabSpec("tab1");
    tabSpec.setContent(intent);
    tabHost.addTab(tabSpec);

    intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, SecondActivity.class);
    tabSpec = tabHost.newTabSpec("tab2");
    tabSpec.setContent(intent);
    tabHost.addTab(tabSpec);
}

This is my TabActivity. And I have ThirdActivity whose layout is like that(It does not seem but TextView is in RelativeLayout) :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>   

TextView
    android:id="@+id/text"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" />  

And I want ThirdActivity should contain the tabs “tab1” and “tab2”.

Use the tutorial in link above posted by Dipak, to create the layout of the TabHost.

Then go ahead an create a class to handle the TabActivity and create 3 separate activity classes for each of your tabs. Link these with the layout described above.

There is a tutorial here showing you how you can create a tab host.
