Question
I'm new to Android, my application retrieves data from database on onCreate() and shows it on 2 TextViews(tv_aye , tv_tarjome), then by clicking on btn_search I call my sub-activity (Search activity) with StartActivityForResult(). In Search activity there is a list view which shows the search result. With click on each List Item it should goes back to the parent activity and replace the TextViews with the contents of selected list Item. The problem is when it sends back the data via setResult() to the parent, nothing changed and the TextViews appear like the first launch. I traced the code with breakpoints but onActivityResult() is never called to retrieve data. If anyone can help me I appreciate in advance.
My Main_Activity code is like this:

Solution 4
finally I found the problem:
instead of
final TextView tv_aye = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv_aye);
I shoud define the TextView globally on top of onCreate()
TextView tv_aye,tv_tarjome;
final keyword doesn't allow the text replacement. That's it.
OTHER TIPS
The main problem is the way you are generating return Intent, you should do as follows
Intent mainIntent = = getIntent();
mainIntent.putExtra("aye", showAye);
mainIntent.putExtra("tarjome", showTarjome);
mainIntent.putExtra("sureNo", showSureNo);
mainIntent.putExtra("ayeNo",showAyeNo);
setResult(RESULT_OK, mainIntent);
db.close();
finish();
According to your logcat, OnActivityResult is being called. See
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException 12-18 03:44:04.309: E/AndroidRuntime(1418): at ir.ommolketab.Main_Activity.onActivityResult(Main_Activity.java:160)
The error is on line 160 and a null pointer exception. May be your TextViews are not initialized at that time.
check line 160
Ok so your problem is: you have a null value in you onActivityResult method, at line 160.
You said that data.getStringExtra("aye") is on line 160. This means that your Bundle data doesn't contain the key "aye", or that a null value is assigned to it.
In your SearchActivity, go to onListItemClick and check if you put strings in the Bundle. I guess at least one string was null.
For instance, what does showAye contains when you do mainIntent.putExtra("aye", showAye);?
