Code:

Intent messageIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
String aEmailList[] = { "[email protected]" };   
messageIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, aEmailList);
messageIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
messageIntent.setType("text/html");
messageIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml(body.toString()));
startActivity(messageIntent);

Finally with the Help of SahilMahajanMj, I have used this code with little change:

 Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
 i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL  , new String[]{"[email protected]"});
 i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
 i.setType("message/rfc822");
 i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml(body.toString()));

try {
    startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Send email via :"));
    Toast.makeText(ArrowsActivity.this, "Email Sent.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
    Toast.makeText(ArrowsActivity.this, "There are no email applications installed.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

In ViewCartActivity.java

public void onClick(View v) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        Intent mViewCartIntent = new Intent(ViewCartActivity.this, com.version.bajrang.january.menu.ArrowsActivity.class);
        mViewCartIntent.putExtra("name", myTextVeiwGrandTotal.getText().toString());
        startActivity(mViewCartIntent);

            }
        });

In ArrowsActivity.java:

TextView txtName = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.total);
Intent i = getIntent();
String name = i.getStringExtra("name");
txtName.setText(name);

I am using above code to get total number of products in cart and i am able to get and show as well, but here total number of items in cart i also want to show on cart tab like:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.queppelin.tastykhana

they have shown 2 in red...

The error message shows:

ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.SEND typ=text/html flg=0x1 (has clip) (has extras) }

It means that the android system doesnt found any email sending activity to handle the intent created by you. Make sure you have email application installed in your device.

Also use the following code to send email,

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.setType("message/rfc822");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL  , new String[]{"[email protected]"});
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject of email");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT   , "body of email");
try {
    startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Send mail"));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
    Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, "There are no email applications installed.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

i knew you got answer, but i have given many hours for my satisfaction i am placing my answer here, and brother i don't need points for this, because @SahilMahajanMj deserve this:

  Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
        i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL  , new String[]{"[email protected]"});
        i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
        i.setType("message/rfc822");
        i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml(body.toString()));

        try {

        }

Seem problem with android.content which you passing with your putExtras .

try something like below:

public Intent sendMail1() {
        Intent messageIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);

        String aEmailList[] = { "[email protected]" };
        messageIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, aEmailList);

        messageIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);

        messageIntent.setType("text/html");
        messageIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
                Html.fromHtml(body.toString()));

        return messageIntent;
    }

Fire your intent like:

startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendMail1(), "send mail"));
