How can I clear previous activity which is open from the tap on notification in Android?

Question

There is a Reminder application. Now users created 5 Reminders. R1, R2, R3, R4, R5.

And for all reminders time is same. So all reminders came in same time. Now I tap on notification which is R1. and when I tap, it opens a particular activity and show according to details because I sent Id of that reminder in intent.

Now I click on R2/R3/R4/R5, it is opening details according to R1 only instead of R2/R3/R4/R5.

Note: In onReceive, I create notification from that. Also, for all reminders, I open same activity, but details on that activity should be different according to Reminder ID. Also, when I send ReminderId/mReceivedId in intent, it is correct, not the same.

Code:

editIntent = new Intent(context, ReminderDetailActivity.class);
editIntent.putExtra(REMINDER_ID, mReceivedId);
editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, rowId, editIntent, 0);

Complete code (I call createNotification() from onReceive):

private void createNotification() {
    int rowId = getRowId(mReceivedId);
    Uri mUri;
    if (preferenceManager.getRingtoneUri() != null) {
        mUri = Uri.parse(preferenceManager.getRingtoneUri());
    } else {
        mUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
    }
    String mTitle = reminder.getTitle();
    String id = "1";
    PendingIntent pendingIntent;
    NotificationCompat.Builder builder;
    if (mNotificationManager == null) {
        mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    }
    Intent editIntent;
    if (SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
        int importance = NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH;
        assert mNotificationManager != null;
        NotificationChannel mChannel = mNotificationManager.getNotificationChannel(id);
        if (mChannel == null) {
            mChannel = new NotificationChannel(id, mTitle, importance);
            mChannel.enableVibration(true);
            mChannel.setVibrationPattern(new long[]{100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 400, 300, 200, 400});
            mNotificationManager.createNotificationChannel(mChannel);
        }
        builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context, id);
        editIntent = new Intent(context, ReminderDetailActivity.class);
        editIntent.putExtra(REMINDER_ID, mReceivedId);
        editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
        editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
        editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
        pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, rowId, editIntent, 0);
        builder.setContentTitle(mTitle)

                .setLargeIcon(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(), R.mipmap.ic_launcher))
                .setContentTitle(mTitle)
                .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_alarm_black_24dp)
                .setSound(mUri)
                .setAutoCancel(true)
                .setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
                .setCategory(NotificationCompat.CATEGORY_REMINDER)
                .setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
                        .bigText("Have you completed your task?"))
                .setBadgeIconType(NotificationCompat.BADGE_ICON_LARGE)
                .addAction(R.drawable.ic_icon_alarm, context.getString(R.string.pay_now), pendingIntent);
        builder.setColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.colorPrimary));


    } else {
        builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context, id);
        editIntent = new Intent(context, ReminderDetailActivity.class);
        editIntent.putExtra(REMINDER_ID, mReceivedId);
        editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
        editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
        editIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
        pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, rowId, editIntent, 0);
        builder.setContentTitle(mTitle)

                .setLargeIcon(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(), R.mipmap.ic_launcher))
                .setContentTitle(mTitle)
                .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_alarm_black_24dp)
                .setSound(mUri)
                .setAutoCancel(true)
                .setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
                .addAction(R.drawable.ic_icon_alarm, context.getString(R.string.pay_now), pendingIntent)
                .setCategory(NotificationCompat.CATEGORY_REMINDER)
                .setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
                        .bigText("Have you completed your task?"))
                .setBadgeIconType(NotificationCompat.BADGE_ICON_LARGE)
                .setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH);

        builder.setColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.colorPrimary));
    }

    Notification notification = builder.build();
    mNotificationManager.notify(rowId, notification);
}

can you show me the code where you are dealing with these extras? — Jawad Malik, Oct 21 '19 at 13:02
@Piyush this is not fro pending intent to set alarm, this is just only for create notification — Pooja Singh, Oct 21 '19 at 13:08
@PoojaSingh But u want to clear previous activity if u start from notification na? Change _pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, rowId, editIntent, 0);_ to _pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, rowId, editIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);_ — Piyush, Oct 21 '19 at 13:09
@JawadMalik Notifications are created correct, there is no dobut, because I set title name and that is exact. — Pooja Singh, Oct 21 '19 at 13:09
@Piyush what I'm saying is, my notification are built perfectly. but when I tap on that, that time only it is showing previous details, which are already opened through previous notification — Pooja Singh, Oct 21 '19 at 13:12
@PoojaSingh In your _ReminderDetailActivity_. This is override method — Piyush, Oct 21 '19 at 13:15
@Piyush while setting the alarm in AlarmManger, I'm using that flag only: mPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, rowId, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT); — Pooja Singh, Oct 21 '19 at 13:15
can you try logging the values you are getting in the intent extra after clicking on the notification? You might get a clue there what is going wrong. — Kartik, Oct 21 '19 at 13:19
@Piyush yr, can you solve this? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58504998/error-code-100-while-working-with-in-app-update-followed-by-documentation-not — Pooja Singh, Oct 23 '19 at 07:18

Welcome to code party

As i seen, u want start an activity when another is already opened and it can’t get other extras.

So you must before sending another intent, clear bundle or finish activity.

Edited:

use this in your activity

@Override
protected void onNewIntent(final Intent intent) {
    super.onNewIntent(intent);
    this.setIntent(intent); //just add this line when overrided
}

do it and update me
