You are able to get the current fragment by doing getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentId) that will return the current fragment. You can then check its type by calling getClass() or by checking its instance as such if(getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentId) instanceof MyFragment){ //Code goes here } You can then type cast it if it is the correct class and call whatever methods you want

MyFragment fragment=(MyFragment)getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentId);
fragment.getSomeData();

What do you mean by user inputs? Like when they press a button? – KennyC May 06 '14 at 13:29
