Cant pass a string from one activity to another

Question

so i have two activities, activity 1 and activity 2 and they both extend a BaseDraweractivity and the BaseDraweractivity implements navigation drawer inturn, somewhat like this. Now the problem is that i cannot pass a string from activity 1 to activity 2. Ive tried this :

In activity 1:

Intent i = new Intent(activity1.this, activity2.class);
 i.putExtra("user", textview.getText().toString());
 startActivity(i);

And in activity 2:

Intent intent = getIntent();
String s = intent.getStringExtra("user");
textview1.setText(s);

But textview1 in activity2 remains empty. What is wrong with it and how can i solve it?

Your code is completely correct. Just check that the textview in activity2 is viisible and also the String passed from activity1 is not empty. — Mrudul Tora, Dec 30 '20 at 17:48
@MrudulTora yes the textview is visible and the string passed is not empty either. I guess it has something to do with the `BaseDrawerActivity` thats in between both of em.It would be awesome if you take a look at the link i provided and see if thats the case! — Poison_Frog, Dec 30 '20 at 18:02
Can you try changing `launchMode` to `SingleTop` and override `onNewIntent` to receive your extras — Mustansir, Dec 30 '20 at 18:36
Hey did you tried logging the the string first instead of assigning it directly to the textview — 50_Seconds _Of_Coding, Dec 30 '20 at 18:47
i think you should log the string first in your 2nd activity, because your code is correct. You just need to check once — Rajendra Mahato, Dec 31 '20 at 11:48

Try this

Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
splash = bundle.getString("user");
