Answer 1

The thing is f1 = new Fragment1(); you have just created a object for fragment class, but this is not the exact way to call the fragment. You are supposed to set transition using the fragmentManager. If you didn't set in this way, then the frgament Lifecycle method's won't be called. So, in your scenario onCreateView() won't be called and the views are not initialized(As your stackTrace clearly states the view is not initialized). Try the below code

f1 = new MainFragment();
            getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.fragment_frame, f1, 
f1 .getClass().getSimpleName()).addToBackStack(null).commit();

I hope you are aware of the other fragment container.i.e., having a FrameLayout in MainActivity and adding the Fragment to that container.

Hope this is helpful:)
