This might be a bit of a lengthy post so my apologies in advance.
I'm using the master/detail flow to display a list of items and when clicking on it it opens the detail view. The items are loaded from a webservice.
It works great on the tablet with the fragments but on the phone it keeps crashing. It can display the item detail (CheatViewPageIndicator.java) properly but when I use the "up" button on the top left in the action bar to return to the parent activity (CheatListActivity.java) the app keeps crashing with a nullpointer exception. I think I'm loading the data from the webservice at the wrong location and that's why it crashes. I'm going to write my code here and hopefully someone can give me an advice how I would have to do this the correct way.
(I've trimmed the classes a bit to shorten the post a bit.)
The "master" activity:
public class CheatListActivity extends FragmentActivity implements CheatListFragment.Callbacks, ReportCheatDialogListener, RateCheatDialogListener {
@Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_cheat_list);

cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
cheatProgressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, getString(R.string.please_wait) + "...", getString(R.string.retrieving_data) + "...", true);
handleIntent(getIntent());
if (findViewById(R.id.cheat_detail_container) != null) {
// The detail container view will be present only in the
// large-screen layouts (res/values-large and
// res/values-sw600dp). If this view is present, then the
// activity should be in two-pane mode.
mTwoPane = true;
// In two-pane mode, list items should be given the
// 'activated' state when touched.
((CheatListFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.cheat_list)).setActivateOnItemClick(true);
}

So in one pane mode (on a phone) when I click the "up" button in the action bar from CheatViewPageIndicator.java to get one up to CheatListActivity.java I get a nullpointer exception pointing to this line:
gameObj = new Gson().fromJson(intent.getStringExtra("gameObj"), Game.class);
Seems like the "intent" is null when going back. I'm wondering why that is? What do I need to do to keep the data in the intent? (or any other solution how to get rid of the nullpointer is perfectly fine with me, too). I'm a bit desperate, I've been searching for a solution for too long.
Thanks a lot for the help.
