Question

in my application i have to date picker as From date and To date. I am using onCreateDialog() method. So first time i am selecting the dates from date picker and putting them in the edit text. then when again i am selecting the date from the date picker, in the date picker it is showing the date which i already selected. But if i move to other search in the same screen(Activity) and try to pick the date from date picker, date picker still is showing the previous date. not the current date.

protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
    final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
    switch (id) {
    case DATE_DIALOG_ID1:
        return new DatePickerDialog(this, mDateSetListener,  c.get(Calendar.YEAR),
                c.get(Calendar.MONTH),  c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));


    case DATE_DIALOG_ID2:
        return new DatePickerDialog(this, mDateSetListener2,  c.get(Calendar.YEAR),
                c.get(Calendar.MONTH),  c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
    }
    return null;
}

May be you can try writing your question clearly once again, but to my understanding of your question you might want to look at your onDateChanged() callback method. I assume you have a updateDialog() method inside this onDateChanged(), you might want to check that method for err’s.

I suppose you looked this link where they showed how to use a date picker http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-datepicker.html

good luck

For the 2nd question you asked about mixup in from and to date dialog

From what you are saying, I think there something like a small error like

1) R.id.datepicker2 being used in place of R.id.datepicker1

or

2) having mixs up in onDateChangedListener(). I am sure there is better way to do it, but try checking whether you have like this below 2 different listeners

final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
    mYear = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    mMonth = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    mDay = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);    



DatePicker fromDatePicker = (DatePicker) findViewById(R.id.datePicker1);
    datePicker.init(mYear, mMonth, mDay, new OnDateChangedListener() {

        @Override
        public void onDateChanged(DatePicker view, int year,
                int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
            //things you want to happen when datepicker1 is changed in your case the From date field     


        }
    });

DatePicker toDatePicker = (DatePicker) findViewById(R.id.datePicker1);
    datePicker.init(mYear, mMonth, mDay, new OnDateChangedListener() {

        @Override
        public void onDateChanged(DatePicker view, int year,
                int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
            //things you want to happen when datepicker2 is changed in your case the To date field     


        }
    });
