Question

Say I have an reference to an object, how should I go about passing this from one Activity to another?

I don’t want to have to query the Application Object / singletons / static variables.

Is this still possible?

Answer 1

You can declare a static variable in another activity, or some Global Variable in Application class, then access it to any activity, like you want to parse some Object of Type NewType, to Class NewActivity, from OldActivity. Do as Following:

Declare an Object of Static NewType in NewActivity.java.

public static NewObject newObject=null;

do Following, when you invoke NewActivity.

NewActivity.newObject=item;
Intent intent=new Intent(OldActivity.this, NewActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
