Get result from activity that launched by widget.

I need to use onActivityResult in widget that launch activity 

public class MainActivity extends AppWidgetProvider implements
    OnActivityResultListener {
Context context;

@Override
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager,
        int[] appWidgetIds) {
    super.onUpdate(context, appWidgetManager, appWidgetIds);
    this.context = context;
    for (int i = 0; i < appWidgetIds.length; i++) {
        int appWidgetId = appWidgetIds[i];
        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
        intent.setType(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
        PendingIntent pending = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, 1);
        RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(),
                R.layout.activity_main);

        views.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.imageButton1, pending);
        appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, views);
    }

}

@Override
public boolean onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

}

I need that when I select contact can get result on the widget

In your manifest, add a new intent filter in your appwidget's broadcast and add a personnal action to it like "GET_RESULT_FROM_ACTIVITY", then launch your activity from which you want result. when you are done with your code, call sendBroadcast(your_intent) method in this activity with an intent in which you put your extras and on which you set your action "GET_RESULT_FROM_ACTIVITY". In your onReceive() method of your appwidget, check if intent.getAction().equals("GET_RESULT_FROM_ACTIVITY") and do what you want in your if statement.

It is wrong that because AppWidgetProvider has not the method onActivityResult.

 @Override
    public boolean onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

    }

IF you want to get result from an activity,you can use send Broadcast to update the appwidget views

Assuming you passed data back from the second activity via Intent.putExtra(), you can access whatever you're passing by calling data.getExtras() in your onActivityResult method.

See tutorial here.
