Handle the Intent in the class you want to do these methods, and send your information to it in a Bundle like so:

    Intent i = new Intent("android.intent.action.MAIN");
    i.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.my.pkg","com.my.pkg.myActivity"));
    Bundle data = new Bundle();

    i.putExtras(data);

    startActivityForResult(i);

Then use an OnActivityResultListener to grab the new data.
