contextual action mode in fragment - close if not focused?

Question

i implemented a contextual action mode bar in a nested fragement. This fragment is part of a view pager and the view pager is also a fragment and part of a navigation drawer.

My Problem: I want to close the contextual action mode bar if the fragment is no more focused. So, if I swipe through the view pager the action mode bar should close. But if I use the onPause() method of the nested fragment, the method is not called directly. Often it waits until i swiped two or three times forward... Here are some pictures:

In the second picture you can see that the action mode bar is still there. So my question is: In which method should I call my actionModeBar.finish() method, to close directly the action mode bar if i leave the fragment?

Maybe the code of the fragment helps you:

public class EditorFragment extends Fragment {

  private static final String KEY_POSITION="position";
  ListView listView;
  private boolean isMultipleList = false;
  private ActionMode acMode;
  private int counterChecked = 0;

  private ActionMode.Callback modeCallBack = new ActionMode.Callback() {

    public boolean onPrepareActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu){
           return false;
       }

      public void onDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode) {
          listView.clearChoices();
            for (int i = 0; i < listView.getChildCount(); i++)
                listView.setItemChecked(i, false);
                listView.post(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        listView.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_NONE);
                    }
                });
          isMultipleList = false;
          counterChecked = 0;
          mode = null;
       }

       public boolean onCreateActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
           mode.setTitle("1 Aufgabe");
           mode.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.actionmode, menu);
           return true;
       }

       public boolean onActionItemClicked(ActionMode mode, MenuItem item) {
           switch (item.getItemId()) {
           case R.id.actionmode_delete:
               int choiceCount = listView.getCount();
               SparseBooleanArray spBoolArray = listView.getCheckedItemPositions();

               DBAufgaben db = new DBAufgaben(MainActivity.getMContext());
               db.open();

               for (int i = 0; i < choiceCount; i++) {
                   if(spBoolArray.get(i)){
                       db.deletContact(listView.getItemIdAtPosition(i));
                   }

               }
                Cursor cursor = db.getAllRecords();
                AdapterEingang adapterE = new AdapterEingang(MainActivity.getMContext(), cursor, 0);
                listView.setAdapter(adapterE);
               db.close();
               mode.finish();
               break;
           case R.id.actionmode_cancel:
               mode.finish();
               break;
           }
           return false;
       }
    };

  //......//

  @Override
  public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

      View rootView = null;
      int position = getArguments().getInt(KEY_POSITION, -1);

      switch(position){
      case 0:
          rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.pager_list, null);
          listView = (ListView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.pager_list);

          Context context = MainActivity.getMContext();

          DBAufgaben db = new DBAufgaben(context);

          db.open();
          Cursor cursor = db.getAllRecords();
          AdapterEingang adapterE = new AdapterEingang(context, cursor, 0);
          listView.setAdapter(adapterE);
          db.close();

          listView.setOnItemLongClickListener(new OnItemLongClickListener(){



                @Override

                        counterChecked++;

                    } else {
                        listView.setItemChecked(position, true);
                        counterChecked++;
                        setNewTitle();
                    }

                    return true;
                }

              });
          listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener(){

            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int position,
                    long id) {
                Log.d(getTag(), "Datensatz: "+String.valueOf(id));
                if(isMultipleList){
                    if(listView.isItemChecked(position)){
                        listView.setItemChecked(position, true);

Here's what worked for me --

1. Hold a static reference to the action mode in MyFragment:

public static ActionMode mActionMode;

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
        mActionMode = mode;
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public void onDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode) {
        mActionMode = null;
    }

2. Set ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener in MyViewPagerActivity.

 mViewPager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {

            ....

            @Override
            public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int state) {
                if(MyFragment.mActionMode != null) MyFragment.mActionMode.finish();
            }


        });
