Question

Intent intent = new Intent(this,Name.class);
intent.putExtra("key", et.getText().toString());
startActivity(intent);

Intent intent = getIntent();
String str = intent.getStringExtra("key");
tv.setText(str);

From using above code I can get a string value at other activity, but I need editText object at another activity.

can anyone give Idea ?

Why not send the ID and then use findViewByid() on the receiver Activity? Hope this helps:

Intent intent = new Intent(); 
String name="textView";
int value=EditText.getID();
intent.putExtra(name, value);
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);

On receiver Activity:

private static final int REQUEST_CODE=1;
private int id;
private EditText et;
private Intent i;

i = new Intent(this,Name.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE);
et = (EditText)findViewById(id);

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
{
    if (resultCode == RESULT_OK && requestCode == REQUEST_CODE)
    {
        if (data.hasExtra("textView"))
        {
            //Get the selected file.
            id = data.getExtras().getInt("textView");
        }
    }
}
