Android: How should I pass a ListView between activities, when the Context object disallows Parcelable?

I'm creating an alarm clock application, and I'd like the homepage to have multiple Alarm objects shown, like the default Android clock application. To do this, I've been trying a ListView to create a button for each Alarm in an ArrayList of Alarms.
Debugging the crashes this caused, I've found that it can't implement Serializable or Parcelable due to the Context object within it, and thus I have no way to pass it from one activity to another. The ListView works fine when I create the alarms from the MainActivity itself, but when I use the CreateAlarmActivity that takes input from the user, the ListView won't pass through and it crashes.
I haven't found this precise problem on StackOverflow. This problem is close (Implementing Parcelable Class That Requires Context) but involves a database, which seems overkill for my needs.
If a ListView is even the best way to go about this, how should I pass the ListView between activities? If there's a better way, what would be a better implementation?
I apologise for the large amount of code. I'm not sure exactly what may prove relevant, so I've erred on the side of too much information rather than too little.

How to resolve the following error Product() in Product cannot be applied?

Here i have declared the product class variables and assigned it.
product.java
public class Product {
String[] name= new String[100];
int price;
int image;
boolean box;
Product(String[] _describe, int _price, int _image, boolean _box) {
name = _describe;
price = _price;
image = _image;
box = _box;
}
}
This is my product class. What should i change in the above coding??
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
String[] data =new String[] {"no:1","no:2","no:3","no:4","no:5","no:6"};
String[] columnTags = new String[] {"ProcessName", "IpItem", "IpColor", "OpItem","OpColor", "PlanQty", "DcQty", "RecQty", "RtQty"};
ArrayList products = new ArrayList();
ListAdapter1 boxAdapter;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
fillData();
boxAdapter = new ListAdapter1(this, products);
ListView lvMain = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvMain);
lvMain.setAdapter(boxAdapter);
}
void fillData() {
for (int i = 0; i <= 20; i++) {
products.add(new Product(columnTags, i * 100,i * 553
, false));
}
}
public void showResult(View v) {
String result = "Selected Product are :";
int totalAmount=0;
for (Product p : boxAdapter.getBox()) {
if (p.box){
result += "\n" + p.name;
totalAmount+=p.image;
}
}
String total="Total="+totalAmount;
// Toast.makeText(this, result+"\n"+"Total Amount:="+totalAmount, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Bundle bundle=new Bundle();
bundle.putString("res",result);
bundle.putString("tot",total);
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,MainActivity2Activity.class);
intent.putExtras(bundle);
startActivity(intent);
}
}

The first parameter of your add() requires a String[] and you are passing it a String.
Just change ,
products.add(columnTags[i],i*100,i*553,false)
to
products.add(columnTags,i*100,i*553,false)
Also do the following,
for(...)
{
String temp = columnTags[i];
products.add(temp,i*100,i*553,false)
}
EDIT
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
fillData();
ArrayAdapter boxAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(products.name)));
ListView lvMain = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvMain);
lvMain.setAdapter(boxAdapter);
}
void fillData() {
String temp;
for (int i = 0; i <columnTags.length; i++) {
temp = columnTags[i];
products.add(new Product(temp, i * 100,i * 553, false));
}
}

Two-Dimensional Array with JSON data - Data is downloaded, but I can't access it (?)

So, I am creating a little trivia game for learning purposes, but I ran into a problem.
First, I had a specific Android Fragment obtaining the data from JSON, and I will simply use that data on the callback method and display it on TextViews and Buttons. Everything was working fine, however, every time I returned to that fragment, the same questions would be there. So I decided to handle that in a better way outside of the callback method.
The problem here is that apparently my Arrays are either null or their lengths is zero. Which is weird, because according to my LOG, data is being passed to those arrays on the callback method.
Here's my full fragment code. Thanks!
public class GameFragment extends Fragment {
private TextView txtQuestion;
private Button btnAnswer1;
private Button btnAnswer2;
private Button btnAnswer3;
private Button btnAnswer4;

gameCategories[2] = new Questions[myApiData.getCategory()[2].getQuestions(2).length];
gameCategories[3] = new Questions[myApiData.getCategory()[3].getQuestions(3).length];
//gameCategories = new Questions[][] {gameQuestions, animeQuestions, techQuestions, movieQuestions};
for(int i = 0; i < 4 ; i++){
for(int j = 0; j < gameCategories[i].length ; j++){
gameCategories[i][j] = myApiData.getCategory()[i].getQuestions(i)[j];
//Log.d("GameFragment", "gameCategories[i][j] - gameCategories["+i+"]["+j+"]: " + gameCategories[i][j].getQuestion());

btnAnswer4.setText(gameCategories[category][randomQuestion].getAnswers().getA4());
}
}
}
}
PS: On my main activity, I check to see which fragment should be loaded. If it's the fragment that contains the components to display the questions and answer (the one from the code above), I call the following method: gameFragment.launchRingDialog(); (and yes, I have created an instance of my GameFragment fragment before calling that method!)

When onResume() is called, your RestClient.get().getQuestions(cb) is still running in background, and your call displayQuestion(), so of course nothing is shown.
Can you put displayQuestion() inside success() of your callback?
Callback cb = new Callback<MyApiData>(){
#Override
public void success(MyApiData myApiData, Response response) {
....
for(int i = 0; i < 4 ; i++){
for(int j = 0; j < gameCategories[i].length ; j++){
...
}
}
displayQuestion();
}
....
};
I would also suggest you to remove displayQuestion() in onResume() method.

Can't start Activity from OnClickListener "method startActivity(Intent, int) is undefined for the type"

I am populating a Scrollview using items retrieved from a SQLite database, and am dynamically generating an OnClickListener for each row using the code below. I want the code in the OnClickListener to return control to the Activity which called it (MealActivity) using an Intent, passing back the id of the item which was clicked on.
I've attempted this using the 2nd code segment below, but I'm getting a compile error: "The method startActivity(Intent, int) is undefined for the type OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem".
How can I invoke the original Activity from my OnClickListener?
public class SelectPresetItemActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_select_preset_item);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.container, new PlaceholderFragment()).commit();
}
readRecords();
}
public void readRecords() {
LinearLayout linearLayoutRecords = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linearLayoutRecords);
linearLayoutRecords.removeAllViews();
List<preset_item> preset_item = new TableControllerPresetItem(this).read();
if (preset_item.size() > 0) {
for (preset_item obj : preset_item) {
long id = obj.id;
String PresetDesc = obj.preset_desc;
int PresetMinutes = obj.preset_minutes;
String textViewContents = PresetDesc + " - "
+ PresetMinutes + " minutes";
TextView textViewItem = new TextView(this);
textViewItem.setPadding(0, 10, 0, 10);
textViewItem.setText(textViewContents);
textViewItem.setTag(Long.toString(id));
textViewItem.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem());
linearLayoutRecords.addView(textViewItem);
}
}
else {
TextView locationItem = new TextView(this);
locationItem.setPadding(8, 8, 8, 8);
locationItem.setText("No records yet.");
linearLayoutRecords.addView(locationItem);
}
}listener
The method startActivity(Intent, int) is undefined for the type OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem
public class SelectPresetItemActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_select_preset_item);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.container, new PlaceholderFragment()).commit();
}
readRecords();
}
public void readRecords() {
LinearLayout linearLayoutRecords = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linearLayoutRecords);
linearLayoutRecords.removeAllViews();
List<preset_item> preset_item = new TableControllerPresetItem(this).read();
if (preset_item.size() > 0) {
for (preset_item obj : preset_item) {
long id = obj.id;
String PresetDesc = obj.preset_desc;
int PresetMinutes = obj.preset_minutes;
String textViewContents = PresetDesc + " - "
+ PresetMinutes + " minutes";
TextView textViewItem = new TextView(this);
textViewItem.setPadding(0, 10, 0, 10);
textViewItem.setText(textViewContents);
textViewItem.setTag(Long.toString(id));
textViewItem.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem());
linearLayoutRecords.addView(textViewItem);
}
}
else {
TextView locationItem = new TextView(this);
locationItem.setPadding(8, 8, 8, 8);
locationItem.setText("No records yet.");
linearLayoutRecords.addView(locationItem);
}
}
This is the OnCLickListener code:
public class OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem implements OnClickListener {
public final static String EXTRA_MEAL_ID = "com.ian.mealtimer.MEAL_ID";
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Long selectedMealId = Long.valueOf(view.getTag().toString());
Intent myIntent = new Intent(view.getContext(),
MealActivity.class);
long mealId = -1;
myIntent.putExtra(EXTRA_MEAL_ID, selectedMealId);
startActivity(myIntent, 0);
}
}

You should use:
startActivity (Intent intent)
there is a different method which has an integer parameter:
startActivityForResult (Intent intent, int requestCode)
Also a context can start an activity, so you have to get the context. Easily you can get it from your view:
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Long selectedMealId = Long.valueOf(view.getTag().toString());
Intent myIntent = new Intent(view.getContext(),
MealActivity.class);
long mealId = -1;
myIntent.putExtra(EXTRA_MEAL_ID, selectedMealId);
view.getContext().startActivity(myIntent);
}
You can read more about starting activities here.

startActivity is a method of the class Context. The OnClickListener cannot know on which context it should be called. Pass the Context as Parameter to the constructor of the OnClickListener and save it inside:
In class OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem:
private Context context;
public OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem(Context context){
this.context=context;
}
Then call startActivity on this context
this.context.startActivity(myIntent, 0);
And construct them by passing the activity
textViewItem.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem(this));

How about you pass the activity to the constructor of the OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem
and then use it like the following :
public class OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem implements OnClickListener {
public final static String EXTRA_MEAL_ID = "com.ian.mealtimer.MEAL_ID";
private SelectPresetItemActivity selectPresetItemActivity;
public OnClickListenerSelectPresetItem(SelectPresetItemActivity selectPresetItemActivity){
this.selectPresetItemActivity = selectPresetItemActivity;
}
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Long selectedMealId = Long.valueOf(view.getTag().toString());
Intent myIntent = new Intent(view.getContext(),
MealActivity.class);
long mealId = -1;
myIntent.putExtra(EXTRA_MEAL_ID, selectedMealId);
selectPresetItemActivity.startActivity(myIntent, 0);
}
}

The problem is that it starts playing audio files all at one time. I tried to add some OnCompletionListener, but I don't know what to do with it. Help me please.

What you can do is
//define a variable to be used as index.
int audioindex = 0;
//Extract the files id into an array
int[] audioFileIds=new int[]{R.raw.as,R.raw.bs};
Then in your MediaPlayer onCompletionListener put something like following.
then in your OnCompletionListener.
mp.setOnCompletionListener(new OnCompletionListener(){
// #Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer player) {
// File has ended, play the next one.
FunctionPlayFile(audioFileIds[audioindex]);
audioindex+=1; //increment the index to get the next audiofile
}
});
