Onactivityresult Isn't Called For Startactivityforresult

I have a MainActivity with an options menu with a 'settings' item. When I start the SettingsActivity, all works fine until I click the save button and try to finish the SettingsAct

Solution 1:

Try to set your mainActivity as

        android:launchMode="singleTask"

in your AndroidManifest.

Solution 2:

Try changing the method from protected to public

Solution 3:

I believe it's because the launchMode, review it in AndroidManifest

Try it with singleTop

[EDITED]

Do this change and tell me what happen when you tap in settings view.

@OverridepublicbooleanonOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.settings:
                Intentintent=newIntent(this, SettingsActivity.class);
                startActivityForResult(intent, ACTIVITY_CREATE);
                break;
    }
    returnsuper.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

Solution 4:

I found the problem. I had a finish() at the end of MainActivity's onStop() function.
