 searchView.setText("blah blah");

try this use setQuery

setQuery(CharSequence query, boolean submit)

Sets a query string in the text field and optionally submits the query as well.

sample code

send title to other activity using intent

Intent intent=new Intent(this, OtherActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("TITLE", "NILESH");
startActivity(intent);

Retrive title in other activity like this

String str = getIntent().getStringExtra("TITLE");
searchView.setQuery(str, false);

//1st activity
Intent intent=new Intent(view.getContext(), 2ndActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("key", someValue);
startActivity(intent);


//2nd activity
String value="";
Intent intent=getIntent();
Bundle bundle=intent.getExtras();
if(bundle!=null)
{
  mealId=bundle.getString("key");
}

Since you had get value in 2nd activity, other things are simple.
