Question

hi.. i have a tab activity in my main actitvity,from it first how can i override the ontabchange listener in another activity. view

TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();

tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab1").setContent(
new Intent(this, Bru_Press_MostRecent.class)).setIndicator(
prepareTabView("Insider Extra",
R.drawable.most_recent_selector)));

  tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab2").setContent(  
                   new Intent(this, Bru_Press_BrowseBy.class))  
                   .setIndicator(  
                        prepareTabView("Browse By",  
                                  R.drawable.browse_by_selector)));

You can't. You need to set up the listener in the activity with the TabHost.

If you used Views as the contents of your tabs, you would not have this problem. Your application would run faster and take up less memory as well.

As it stands, your "2 list view" activity will need to call getParent(), cast that to be the activity class that has the TabHost, and call some private method on there that you implement. That method will call setCurrentTab(0); on the TabHost.
