Q: 

Android tabHost accessing specific tabs

I have a tabHost with tree tabs. How can I access a specific tab from the tabHost activity when this tab is not active at the moment. And a second question to this topic... How can I access the activity of a tab from another tab?

I need this, because I have to update the second tab when something changes on the first tab.

Thank you

A: 

you can simply get it by using the below code tabHost.setCurrentTab(0),if you want first tab

But with this statement the current tab is changed. I would not change the current tab, but I need to access another tab than the current.
