get ImageView's image and send it to an activity with Intent

Question

Answer 1

You can put Parcable (bitmap for example) or serializable objects in a bundle and retrieve the object from the Bundle in the other activity.

how do you pass images (bitmaps) between android activities using bundles?

Although I would not recommend it because you pass a lot of data between activities. I would recommend you to pass the image reference id to the next activity and retrieve the image there.

How to pass the selectedListItem's object to another activity?

EDIT:

intent.putExtra("imageId", imageId);

in the other activity:

int imageRef = getIntent().getIntExtra("imageId", defaultValue);
