Fragment hiding after back button

I have added a fragment inside an activity, by using below code:

    FragmentManager fragmentManager=getFragmentManager();
    FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction=fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
    PreferenceFragment preferencefragment=new Preferencefragment();
    fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.maincontainer, preferencefragment);
    fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null);
    fragmentTransaction.commit();

Layout File:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<DigitalClock
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/digitalClock"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:textColor="@color/appcolor"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    style="@android:style/TextAppearance.DeviceDefault.Large"
    android:textSize="45dp"/>
<TimePicker
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/timePickersms" />

<FrameLayout
    android:id="@+id/maincontainer"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

The activity has digital clock and timepicker and below that the fragment gets displayed, now when I click on back button first the fragment disappears and later the previous activity is displayed. How can the previous activity be displayed at one shot?

The next question I have is how can I refresh the fragment when a button is pressed on the screen?

addToBackStack(null) adds the fragment to back stack which is automatically popped out when back is pressed.

So you can fix this by two methods (whichever suits you):

remove addToBackStack(null)

OR

add the following code to your activity:

@Override
public void onBackPressed(){
    finish();
}

EDIT:

As far as refreshing of fragment is concerned, you have two options again: First one is simply replace the old fragment by the older one. Second one is you can maintain a object of your fragment and have setter/getter functions for updating the data inside fragment.
