                count++;

                lstv.setText("Available: " + count + " members");
            }
        } catch (JSONException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }


        listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int position, long id)
            {
                Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SingleUser.class);
                intent.putExtra("username", String.valueOf(listView.getSelectedItem()));
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });
    }
}

I try to pass data from this ListView to another EditText in an other activity but the result is always null, I want to pass all the text string from the ListView to the EditText.

You haven't actually updated the ListView by calling notifyDataSetChanged() — Keshav, Jan 11 '16 at 00:46

Do this way,

listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int position, long id)
            {
                Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SingleUser.class);
                intent.putExtra("username", YourModels.get(position).getUsername());//here first get position and than pass data you want to pass
                intent.putExtra("fk_Code", "" + YourModels.get(position).getFk_Code());//take data from your model
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });

model is a class where you setData and getData. from that class you can get data and pass that data to other activity @O.aniba – Amit Vaghela Jan 11 '16 at 15:24

It was too simple i found a simple solution i created a bunch of string arrays that contains each of the data fetched from the DB and stored in them, so now i can choose from those String arrays by position, but thanks anyway
