Android ViewPager2 with different Fragments : Error->Shows always the same fragment

Question

i am using the new android viewpager2, but when i load different fragments, the viewpager2 shows only the same fragments..

Is this an error? in the older viewpager everything worked.

As you can see here in the images, the android app load the same fragments.

In the viewPagerAdapter I load or create for each position a different fragment Code ViewPagerAdaptor

public class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentStateAdapter {

    public ViewPagerAdapter(@NonNull FragmentActivity fragmentActivity)
    {
        super(fragmentActivity);
    }

    @NonNull
    @Override
    public Fragment createFragment(int position) {

        switch (position) {
            case 0:
                return  new page1();
            case 1:
                return  new page2();
            default:
                return  new pageDefault();
        }
    }
    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {return 3; }


}

The MainActivity.class

@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        tabLayout = findViewById(R.id.tabs);
        viewPager2 = findViewById(R.id.view_pager);
    
        ViewPagerAdapter adapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(this);
        viewPager2.setAdapter(adapter);
    
        new TabLayoutMediator(tabLayout, viewPager2,
                new TabLayoutMediator.TabConfigurationStrategy() {
                    @Override
                    public void onConfigureTab(@NonNull TabLayout.Tab tab, int position) {
                        tab.setText("Tab " + (position + 1));
                    }
                }).attach();
}

here come the fragments fragment_page1

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/fragment_page1"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".page1">

    <!-- TODO: Update blank fragment layout -->
    <TextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:textSize="20sp"
        android:textStyle="bold"
        android:text="This is Page 0" />

</FrameLayout>

and fragment_page2

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".page2">

    <!-- TODO: Update blank fragment layout -->
    <TextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:textSize="20sp"
        android:textStyle="bold"
        android:text="This is Page 02"
        android:background="@color/red_100"/>

</FrameLayout>

and the java code of page1.java

package com.example.demo_viewpager2;

import android.os.Bundle;

import androidx.fragment.app.Fragment;

import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;

public class page1 extends Fragment {

    public page1() {
        // Required empty public constructor
    }

    public static page1 newInstance() {
        page1 fragment = new page1();
        return fragment;
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    }

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_page1, container, false);
    }
}

After trying the code provided and add the missing files, i am unable to replicate your issue and is working fine on my testing.

thank you, this workes really fine. there was an typo error in the inflate of page2 to the page1

@Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_page1, container, false); }
