Answer 1

Your code has a nested fragment. Calling super.onActivityForResult doesn't work

You don't want to modify every activity that your fragment can be called from and or make a work around calling every fragment in the fragment chain.

Here is one of many working solutions. create a fragment on the fly and wire it directly to the activity with the support fragment manager. Then call startActivityForResult from the newly created fragment.

private void get_UserEmail() {

    if (view == null) {
        return;
    }
    ((TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.tvApplicationUserName))
            .setText("Searching device for user accounts...");

    final FragmentManager fragManager = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager();

    Fragment f = new Fragment() {
        @Override
        public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
            super.onAttach(activity);
            startActivityForResult(AccountPicker.newChooseAccountIntent(null, null,
                    new String[]{"com.google"}, false, null, null, null, null), REQUEST_CODE_PICK_ACCOUNT);
        }

        @Override
        public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
                                     Intent data) {
            if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_PICK_ACCOUNT) {
                String mEmail = "";
                if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
                    if (data.hasExtra(AccountManager.KEY_ACCOUNT_NAME)) {
                        mEmail = data
                                .getStringExtra(AccountManager.KEY_ACCOUNT_NAME);
                    }
                }
                if (mActivity != null) {
                    GoPreferences.putString(mActivity, SettingApplication.USER_EMAIL, mEmail);
                }
                doUser();
            }
            super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
            fragManager.beginTransaction().remove(this).commit();
        }
    };
    FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragManager
            .beginTransaction();
    fragmentTransaction.add(f, "xx" + REQUEST_CODE_PICK_ACCOUNT);
    fragmentTransaction.commit();
}
