Android retrieving result on onActivityResult from another activity using bundle

Hello everyone if you would kindly help me. I'm stuck on how to retrieve the bundle data from another activity. Basically I have two activities which is that when I pressed a button on the first activity, it will go on the second activity and then sets the string values which is later on to be passed on the first activity. What I did was I used the bundle to put the string values. My question is that how can I get the bundle values (of strings) from the second activity and return it on to the first activity? Here is my code:

FirstActivity (going on to second activity):

button1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                startActivityForResult(new Intent(this,
                        SecondActivity.class), REQUEST_CODE_SAMPLE);
            }
        });

SecondActivity: (returning the bundle value)

button2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(View v) {
                        Bundle b = new Bundle();
                        bundle.putString("A", "Aloha");
                        bundle.putString("B", "Bubbles");

            setResult(
                    Activity.RESULT_OK,
                    getIntent().putExtras(b));
                    }
                });
}

FirstActivity (going to retrieve the bundle values):

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

    switch (requestCode) {
    case REQUEST_CODE_SAMPLE:
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
                bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
                //WHAT TO DO TO GET THE BUNDLE VALUES//
                String a = //STORE FIRST VALUE OF BUNDLE
                String b = //STORE SECOND VALUE OF BUNDLE
        }

        break;

    default:
        break;
    }
}

You need to do the following:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch (requestCode) {
  case REQUEST_CODE_SAMPLE:
    if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            Bundle bundle = data.getExtras();
            //WHAT TO DO TO GET THE BUNDLE VALUES//
            String a = bundle.getString("A");
            String b = bundle.getString("B");
      }
    break;
  }
}

but take care, you must use the intent passed to the onActivityResult not getIntent

Also in SecondActivity, you need to use a new intent:

button2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    Bundle bundle= new Bundle();
                    bundle.putString("A", "Aloha");
                    bundle.putString("B", "Bubbles");

                    Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
                    returnIntent.putExtras(bundle);

                    setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK, returnIntent);
                }
            });
}
