Answer 1

You can Broadcast Intent from the Fragment to activity after you get the bundle

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Object o) {
    super.onPostExecute(o);
    Intent intent = new Intent("key_to_identify_the_broadcast");
    Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
    bundle.putString("edttext", json.toString());
    intent.putExtra("bundle_key_for_intent", bundle);
    context.sendBroadcast(intent);
}

and then you can receive the bundle in your Activity by using the BroadcastReceiver class

private final BroadcastReceiver mHandleMessageReceiver = new 
BroadcastReceiver() {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        Bundle bundle = 
            intent.getExtras().getBundle("bundle_key_for_intent");
            if(bundle!=null){
                String edttext = bundle.getString("edttext");
            }
            //you can call any of your methods for using this bundle for your use case
    }
};

in onCreate() of your Activity you need to register the broadcast receiver first otherwise this broadcast receiver will not be triggered

IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter("key_to_identify_the_broadcast");
getActivity().getApplicationContext().
               registerReceiver(mHandleMessageReceiver, filter);

Finally you can unregister the receiver to avoid any exceptions

@Override
public void onDestroy() {
    try {

         getActivity().getApplicationContext().
             unregisterReceiver(mHandleMessageReceiver);

    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.e("UnRegister Error", "> " + e.getMessage());
    }
    super.onDestroy();
}

You can create separate broadcast receivers in all of your fragments and use the same broadcast to broadcast the data to your Activity. You can also use different keys for different fragments and then broadcast using particular key for particular fragment.
