How to get functionalities of Fragment Activity in other Activity

I have created a Fragment Activity, It displays Google Map and does other stuff.

Now i have another Activity, I want to use all the functionalities of Fragment Activity into my new Activity.

If i had Fragment, i would have easily used it in my new layout like following.

   <fragment
        android:id="@+id/calendarFragment"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"  
        class="com.activities.fragments.HeaderFragment"
        tools:layout="@layout/header_fragment" />

But now i am using FragmentActivity, i cannot use above mentioned code, if i use it it gives me following error message

  Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException

and it obvious, as i passing FragmentActivity into Activity.

Kindly guide me how to reuse FragmentActivity

One simple way would be to use inheritance. Basically make 1 FragmentActivity as the base and then make implementation A (which you already have) that extends the FragmentActivity and then make implementation B which also extends it but does some things differently. It all depends on how much you want to reuse...

Just to make it completely clear. Your current FragmentActivity will be the base. Implementation A will not change very much, while B might change a lot...
