With the ListView it works perfect, but how to do this with two buttons?

Answer 1

Simply intent to that activity on button click

Button1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

public void onClick(View v) {

 Intent i = new Intent(MainActivity.this,DetailActivity.class);
 i.putExtra("Detail1","Detail 1");
 startActivity(i);  

   }
});


   Button2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {

     Intent i = new Intent(MainActivity.this,DetailActivity.class);
     i.putExtra("Detail2","Detail 2");
     startActivity(i);  

       }
    });

Answer 2

OK well in that case do this:

Button1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {

    Intent i = new Intent(YourActivity.this,DetailActivity.class);
    i.putExtra("text","Some String for this one");

    startActivity(i);  

    }
});


Button2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {

    Intent i = new Intent(YourActivity.this,DetailActivity.class);
    i.putExtra("text","Some other String for this one");
    startActivity(i);  

    }
});

As you can see, the method putStringExtra() form Intent allows you to send in some information. So in your DetailActivity class you can get it like so:

Intent intent = getIntent();
String text = intent.getStringExtra("text");
//and now you have the text you sent in when you created the Activity

So you can make your DetailActivity in a way where it displays whatever is sent with the intent's extras.
