Inside your setOnclickListenerdo something like this,
Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sharingIntent.setType("text/plain");
String shareBody = "your string";
sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "your header text");
sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, shareBody);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharingIntent, "your title"));
This is basically sending a short message with a subject line , body and a title.

String contents = intent.getStringExtra("SCAN_RESULT"); AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this); builder.setMessage(contents); builder.setTitle("Auto Details"); – Saurav Kumar Oct 16 '15 at 13:18
