Question

Say I have 2 activities (ActivityOne and ActivityTwo). How would I call ActivityTwo from ActivityOne? Then how would I return to ActivityOne from ActivityTwo? For example, I have a listview with all the contacts on the host phone. When I tap on a contact, another activity shows information and allows editing of that contact. Then I could hit the back button, and I would go back to the exact state that ActivityOne was in before I called ActivityTwo. I was thinking an Intent object, but I am not sure. Could someone post some code?

Answer 1

In your first activity (AcitvityOne) you could call

Intent intent = new Intent(this, ActivityTwo.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, CODE);

Then you can override

public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

to receive the result of this activity
