onActivityResult method not being called Android

Question

I am trying to send data from child activity to parent. But somehow, onActivityResult(..) is not getting called. here is code

Parent activity

selecte         


        

Answer 1

onPause was effecting onActivityResult.

One of the corner case might be:
my case was different and silly: The problem was in onPause, finish called and end the activity. Removed that and works well.

@Override
protected void onPause() {
    super.onPause();
    finish(); // this line causing the issue removed it. 
}
