Navigation Drawer's Fragment Management

Question

I am developing an app where i am using only 1 Main Activity and Multiple fragment, Including ViewPager , Custom video/Image Gallery, Fullscreen Fragment(Without toolbar or bottom navigation button). I am not sure is it good practice or not but i am facing few issues cause of this.

Image above is actual App hierarchy. Following the issue i am facing.

1. Toolbar doesn't change title of fragment, when press back button or going forward by clicking button or some link.
2. Navigation hamburger keep showing if i change into back arrow by using: getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true); then back arrow opens drawers but not going back to last fragment.
3. Fragment State Loss when pressed back button or jumping directly to some fragment.
4. Whether is it good practice to doing all task within Fragment with Single Activity.

I am also using single Toolbar whole app. Toolbar.xml

}

I tired alot to resolve this issue and after months of googling and stackoverflow i m still stuck in same issue.

Issue example of Point 1:- When navigation drawer load first everything looks good, view pager changes title as per fragment. then if i click on Navigation Drawer's Menu which also open another fragment (For Ex: Recent Message). then title change successfully but when i press back button or trying to press home button which calls viewpager then title remain same as before i.e. Recent Message.

Setting Title in each fragment like this.

toolbar = (Toolbar) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.Navigation_Drawer_toolbar);
        ImageView appLogo = toolbar.findViewById(R.id.appLogo);
        TextView fragmentTitle = toolbar.findViewById(R.id.activityTitle);
        appLogo.setImageResource(DrawableImage);
        fragmentTitle.setText(Title);

Answer 1

If application have to use Navigation Drawer which should be present in all views, then Fragment should be used. And its not a bad practice.

1. Toolbar doesn't change title of fragment, when press back button or going forward by clicking button or some link.

Create a method in Base Activity

public void setFragmentTitle(String title){
        if(!TextUtils.isEmpty(title))
        mTitleText.setText(title);
    }

Access this method from your individual Fragments in onCreateView

((LandingActivity) getActivity()).setFragmentTitle(getActivity().getString(R.string.fragment_title));

2. Navigation hamburger keep showing if i change into back arrow by using: getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true); then back arrow opens drawers but not going back to last fragment.

   Use onOptionItemSelected on click of android.R.id.home , pop the current Fragment

3. Fragment State Loss when pressed back button or jumping directly to some fragment

   You have to mention the values which needs to be persisted and repopulate it.

public class ActivityABC....{

private String mFName;
private TableSelectFragment mFragment;

   @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();

    if (savedInstanceState != null) {

      mFragment=(TableSelectFragment)fm.getFragment(savedInstanceState,"TABLE_FRAGMENT");
      mFName = savedInstanceState.getString("FNAMETAG");

    }else{
      mFragment = new TableSelectFragment();
      fm.beginTransaction().add(R.id.content_frame,mFragment,"TABLE_FRAGMENT").commit();
       }
    }

   @Override
    protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
        super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
       getSupportFragmentManager().putFragment(outState,"TABLE_FRAGMENT",mFragment);
    }
}

In your Fragment

TableSelectFragment{

  ....

   private String mFName;

   @Override
   public void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
     super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
     setRetainInstance(true);
    }

    @Override
    public void onSaveInstanceState(@NonNull Bundle outState) {
        outState.putString("FNAMETAG", mFName);
        super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
    }
}

EDIT 1: For Fragment Title not getting updated in BackButton press

While adding Fragment to backstack , do the following.

In your parent Activity

FragmentManager fragMan = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragTrans = fragMan.beginTransaction();
LandingFrag landingFrag = LandingFrag.newInstance();
fragTrans.replace(R.id.landing_view, landingFrag,"LandingFrag");
fragTrans.addToBackStack(null);
fragTrans.commit();
landingFrag.setUserVisibleHint(true);

Now override onBackPressed in parent Activity

    @Override
    public void onBackPressed() {
        DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
        if (drawer.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.START)) {
            drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
        } else {

            .. POP Fragment Backstack here

            Fragment fragment =  getActiveFragment();
            if(fragment instanceof  LandingFrag)
            {
                    LandingFrag landingFrag = (LandingFrag)fragment;
                    landingFrag.setUserVisibleHint(true);
            }

        }

  public Fragment getActiveFragment() {
        if (getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() == 0) {
            return null;
        }
        Fragment fragment=null;
        int trackBackValue = 1;//INCREASE OR DECREASE ACCORDING TO YOUR BACK STACK

        try {
            fragment = getSupportFragmentManager().getFragments().get(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() - trackBackValue);
        } catch (Exception e) {
        }
        return fragment;

   }

Now in LandingFrag

public class LandingFrag...
{

    @Override
    public void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setUserVisibleHint(false);
        .....
    }

    @Override
    public void onViewStateRestored(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onViewStateRestored(savedInstanceState);
    }

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
         ................    
          ((LandingActivity) getActivity()).setFragmentTitle("Current Fragment Title");
    }
    @Override
    public void setUserVisibleHint(boolean isVisibleToUser) {
        super.setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser);
        if(isVisibleToUser){
            try {
                ((LandingActivity) getActivity()).setFragmentTitle("Current Fragment Title");
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }

}
