Maybe this can help you.

public class Scripts extends Activity {

     @Override
     public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
         setContentView(R.layout.activity_scripts); 
         getActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);



        //Extract the data

         String yourTitle = getIntent().getStringExtra("n");
     }
}
