Ok you can try this

We you are creating the PendingIntent pass the new intent to launch activity from another application(appA)

Intent intent = new Intent();

//com.colisa.broadcast is the package of another app
//com.colisa.broadcast.MainActivity is the actity to be launched
intent.setComponent(
   new ComponentName("com.colisa.broadcast","com.colisa.broadcast.MainActivity"));

Then you will pass it to the PengingIntent.setContentIntent(intent)

I haven't triend this but i think you can intent.putExtra(key, message) and on receiving Activity get that messsage via (this post)

if (null != getIntent().getExtras().getString(key)){
  // whatever
}

thank you , but why i can use old intent from appA in appB and need create new intent? I try add ComponentName in appA and send appB but it dont work ... – izac Nov 06 '16 at 22:37
are you getting any kind of error? you can use `Intent.setFlag(FLAG_DEBUG_LOG_RESOLUTION)` for extra log information about intent resolution – Emmanuel Mtali Nov 07 '16 at 08:37
