Why I am not getting passed values at another Activity?

I am sending values using intent.putExtras but I am getting null values on the next activity. Here is my code for intent

if (id == R.id.save_times) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(AlertTimerSelector.this, Dashboard.class);
        intent.putExtra(AppHelper.LOW_LEVEL, dialogHelper.getPicker_value1());
        Log.d("AlertTimer", "onOptionsItemSelected: " + dialogHelper.getPicker_value1());
        intent.putExtra(AppHelper.MEDIUM_LEVEL, dialogHelper.getPicker_value2());
        Log.d("AlertTimer", "onOptionsItemSelected: " + dialogHelper.getPicker_value2());
        intent.putExtra(AppHelper.HIGH_LEVEL, dialogHelper.getPicker_value3());
        Log.d("AlertTimer", "onOptionsItemSelected: " + dialogHelper.getPicker_value3());
        intent.putExtra(AppHelper.ALERT_TIME_ID_TEXT,AppHelper.ALERT_TIME_ID);
        intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK|Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
        startActivity(intent);
        finish();
        return true;
    }

And this is my next Activity code where i am retrieving these values in onNewIntent

@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {

    Bundle bundle=getIntent().getExtras();
    if (bundle.getString(AppHelper.ALERT_TIME_ID_TEXT).equals(AppHelper.ALERT_TIME_ID)){
        low_level_time=bundle.getString(AppHelper.LOW_LEVEL);
        medium_level_time=bundle.getString(AppHelper.MEDIUM_LEVEL);
        high_level_time=bundle.getString(AppHelper.HIGH_LEVEL);
    }
    if (bundle.get(AppHelper.SLEEP_TIME_ID_TEXT).equals(AppHelper.SLEEP_ID)){
        sleep_time_hrs=bundle.getString(AppHelper.SLEEP_TIME_HOURS);
        sleep_time_mins=bundle.getString(AppHelper.SLEEP_TIME_MINUTES);
        wakeup_time_hrs=bundle.getString(AppHelper.WAKEUP_TIME_HOURS);
        wakeup_time_mins=bundle.getString(AppHelper.WAKEUP_TIME_MINUTES);
    }
    Log.d(TAG, "onNewIntent: "+bundle.toString());
    super.onNewIntent(intent);
}

The activity in which you are receiving intent,add the flag in manifest file under that activity

 android:launchMode="singleTop"

onNewIntent() will be called only when FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP is called. Since you are using 3 flags in activity, there may be some problem. Use only FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP and try.

or

Move your values retrieving code to onCreate and try.

You have to get your data for example on the onCreate method like this

String myString = getIntent().getStringExtra(AppHelper.LOW_LEVEL);

OnNewIntent is called when you try to start the same activity that has a launchmode equal to singleTop (or have it setted programmatically)

Try This:

 Intent intent=getIntent();
 if(intent!=null)
  {
    low_level_time=intent.getStringExtra(AppHelper.LOW_LEVEL);
     //other values like above..

  }

First, get the intent which has started your activity using the getIntent() method:

Intent intent = getIntent();

If your extra data is represented as strings, then you can use intent.getStringExtra(String name) method. In your case:

String id = intent.getStringExtra(AppHelper.LOW_LEVEL);
