Get value of a EditText in another layout

I have an dialog that appears where the user can costumize how many points they get from each action. The dialog is based on a layout that is not the main_activity. the main activity is the layout that is used in setContentView in the onCreate method.
when I try to get the values I am only getting null, (because the layout where the EditText is is not set as the contentview.... maybe?)
How do I solve this problem so that I get the value of the edittext in the "settings" layout and can use that value in the MainActivity?

I would strongly recommend using SharedPreferences. This way, you can access the data even if you restart your application. If that does not work for you, you can use Intent.
Consider reading this StackOverflow post.
Using SharedPreferences:
SharedPreferences sharedPref = getActivity().getPreferences(Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPref.edit();
editor.putInt(getString(R.string.points), pointsPerActivity);
editor.commit();
SharedPreferences sharedPref = getActivity().getPreferences(Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
int defaultValue = 1;
// or you can store the value somewhere
// getResources().getInteger(R.integer.defaultPointsPerActivity);
int pointsPerActivity = sharedPref.getInt(pointsPerActivity, defaultValue);

pass view object in applySettings(v);
private int teamOnePoints=0;
private int teamTwoPoints=0;
private boolean teamOneField=true;
private int burnedPoints = 1;
private int lyrePoints= 3;
private int oneHandLyrePoints = 5;

private int revPoints=1;
private String teamOneName = "Lag 1";

How to pass users EditText input in a Textview in another activity

I have 2 textboxes with a users name and Id number in my main activity.
When clicking the edit button the user is sent to second activity where they can edit their name and Id number.
Then when they click Save, the edited input should override the written text in the two existing textviews in the first activity.
But when I click the Save button, my app crashes...
Furthermore, main activity has also a capture profile pic. feauture, but when in landscape mode, my captured image. disappear.
I'm totally new to Android and this is a school assignment with due on Sunday... Can someone please help me!!

My main java (named CameraActivity):
public class CameraActivity extends Activity {
Button BtnTakePhoto;
ImageView imgTakenPhoto;
Button push_button;
TextView Name;
TextView ID;
private static final int CAMERA_REQUEST = 1888;
private static final int EDIT_REQUEST = 1;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_camera);
push_button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.push_button);
push_button.setOnClickListener(new push_buttonClicker());
imgTakenPhoto = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
BtnTakePhoto = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
BtnTakePhoto.setOnClickListener(new BtnTakePhotoClicker());
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST) {
Bitmap thumbnail = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
imgTakenPhoto.setImageBitmap(thumbnail);
}
if (requestCode == EDIT_REQUEST) {
Bundle b = getIntent().getExtras();
Name = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.Name);
ID = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.ID);
Name.setText(b.getCharSequence("Name"));
ID.setText(b.getCharSequence("ID nr"));
}
}
class BtnTakePhotoClicker implements Button.OnClickListener
{
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
}class push_buttonClicker implements Button.OnClickListener{
public void onClick(View v){
Intent Intent = new Intent(CameraActivity.this, SecondActivity2.class);
CameraActivity.this.startActivityForResult(Intent, EDIT_REQUEST);
}}}
AND my secondActivity.java:
public class SecondActivity2 extends AppCompatActivity {
TextView tvView;
EditText EditName;
EditText EditID;
Button buttonCancel;
Button buttonSave;
CheckBox checkBox;
TextView Name;
TextView ID;
private static final int RESULT_OK = 10;
//private static final int RESULT_CANCELED = 2;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_second2);
// CheckBox Yes = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.Yes);
// CheckBox NO = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.NO);
buttonSave = (Button) this.findViewById(R.id.buttonSave);
buttonCancel = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonCancel);
EditName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.EditName);
EditID = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.EditID);
buttonSave.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent data = new Intent();
data.putExtra("name", EditName.getText().toString());
data.putExtra("ID", EditID.getText().toString());
setResult(RESULT_OK, data);
finish();
}
});}}

change your code inside onActivityResult under EDIT_REQUEST condition
String name = data.getStringExtra("name");
String ID = data.getStringExtra("ID");
Name.setText(name);
ID.setText(ID);
no need to create a Bundle there, it will solve your problem.

Focus to the EditText doesn't work

I'm using broadcast receiver to show a dialog.So the flow of code is something like:
Step1 Getting the requestCode value
Step2 Based on this requestCode the broadCast receiver goes to if or else if or else part
Step3 If the value that i entered using some scanner into the EditText(i.e Scan) doesn't matches it shows a Toast "Item Not Available".
Step 4 Once "Item Not Available" toast comes I need the focus to be on EditText(i.e Scan) so that next time also i can put fresh value in that after clearing it.
So my question is "How can i give focus to the EditText" and set it to the EditText(i.e Scan).
For Reference I'm attaching the snap with code snippet and the layout.xml.Please have a look and drop your suggestions why the focus is going to the listview.

What about this:
lstView.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
msearchtext.requestFocus();
}
});

Cannot Resolve Method setVisibility(int)

I am attempting to have have a edittext box appear when a certain radiobutton in a group is checked. I am getting the error with setVisibility, and when running the error that it says is int cannot be dereferenced.
JAVA
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
//Declared some variables here. One for each field in the form
ShareActionProvider mShareActionProvider;
String feedbackType;
String feedback;
String email;
String fName;
String lName;
String fAnswer;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
RadioGroup radiochoice=(RadioGroup) findViewById(R.id.radiochoice);
radiochoice.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new OnCheckedChangeListener() {
#Override

R.id.RejectResponse.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);}
else if (checkedId == R.id.AcceptRadio) {

You have to do this:
//Reference rejectResponse
EditText rejectResponse = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.RejectResponse);
//Change visibility
rejectResponse.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
This might be useful: Android View

Now when I run my app I get a NullPointerException within the onCreateView() within the onClick at the line:
String newName = name.getText().toString().trim();
Now I have tried printing out the variables, debugging but I just cannot seem to figure out why it is getting a NullPointerException. It may be something simple that I'm overlooking, I've just been looking at it for so long I may just be going crazy.

I think your EditText 'name' is not initialized.

You have not initialized those EditText, so you are getting NPE. initialize those components first ..From your code call this method setupTextFieldsByContact() in onCreate it will solve your problem.

Of course you're getting a NullPointerException...you never initialized your EditTexts in the onCreate method. Add this to your onCreate:
name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editContactName);
description = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editContactDescription);
primaryNumber = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editContactPrimaryNumber);
secondaryNumber = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editContactSecondaryNumber);
email = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editContactEmail);
skype = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editContactSkype);
That way you'll be calling methods on objects that actually exist.

your EditText 'name' is not initialized. you have to initialized your EditText first
