copied!<p>I'm trying to save the name the user enters on the log in screen below <code>Settings.java</code> to a <code>sharedPreference</code>, which will be read by <code>TestFragment2.java</code>, which is called from another FragmentActivity, <code>SampleTabsDefault.java</code></p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/TbXEj.jpg" alt="Log in Screen"> <b>Settings.java</b></p> <pre><code> private void savePrefs(String key, boolean value) { SharedPreferences sp = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this); Editor edit = sp.edit(); edit.putBoolean(key, value); edit.commit(); } private void savePrefs(String key, String value) { SharedPreferences sp = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this); Editor edit = sp.edit(); edit.putString(key, value); edit.commit(); } @Override public void onClick(View v) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub savePrefs("CHECKBOX", cb.isChecked()); if (cb.isChecked()) savePrefs("NAME", et.getText().toString()); Intent myIntent = new Intent("com.test.SAMPLETABSDEFAULT"); startActivity(myIntent); finish(); } } </code></pre> <p><code>Intent myIntent = new Intent("com.test.SAMPLETABSDEFAULT");startActivity(myIntent);</code> loads the <code>SampleTabsDefault.java</code> just fine, and so do all the fragments it calls. </p> <pre><code> class NavTabs extends FragmentPagerAdapter { public NavTabs(FragmentManager fm) { super(fm); } @Override public Fragment getItem(int position) { switch(position) { case 0: TestFragment fragment = new TestFragment(); return fragment; case 1: TestFragment2 fragment2 = new TestFragment2(); return fragment2; } TestFragment3 fragment3 = new TestFragment3(); return fragment3; } </code></pre> <p>I can scroll left right and get to fragment TestFragment2.java seen below....however its not reading, or Im making a very bonehead move applying the <code>sharedPreferences</code> inside <code>TestFragment2.java</code> <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Z0EF7.jpg" alt="SampleTabsDefault.java and TestFragment2.java"> <b>TestFragment2.java</b></p> <pre><code> @Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { View myView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_2, container, false); text = (TextView)myView.findViewById(R.id.textView1); et = (TextView)myView.findViewById(R.id.textView3); cb = (CheckBox) myView.findViewById(R.id.checkBox1); loadPrefs(); return myView; } private void loadPrefs() { SharedPreferences sp = getActivity().getSharedPreferences("CHECKBOX", 0); boolean cbValue = sp.getBoolean("CHECKBOX", false); String name = sp.getString("NAME", "YourName"); if(cbValue){ cb.setChecked(true); }else{ cb.setChecked(false); } et.setText(name); } </code></pre> <p>In <code>TestFragment2.java</code> Im trying to read and apply to <code>textView</code> via 'setText();' the sharedPreferences the same way I do on <code>Settings.java</code>. The code in <code>Settings.java</code> does work, <code>String name = sp.getString("NAME", "YourName");</code>it loads the <code>sharedPreference</code> and displays the name entered by the user last time application was ran , but in <code>TestFragmnet2.java</code> the same block of code returns YourName from <code>String name = sp.getString("NAME", "YourName");</code></p> <p>Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!!</p>
