Answer 1

Use Intents to pass data between activities.

Intent intent = new Intent(current.this, Next.class);
intent.putExtra("itemid", item.getItemId());
startActivity(intent);

And in the other activity.

 String itemId= getIntent().getStringExtra("itemid");
 switch(itemId)
 {
   ...
  }

From your code it seems you want to pass value from a fragment to another fragment. If so you should edit the question. Its saying you want to pass value from one activity to another. I am answering according to fragment.

Do this

switch(item.getItemId()) {
    case android.R.id.home:
        mDrawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item);

    case R.id.action_settings:
        SettingsFragment fragmentS = new SettingsFragment();
        Bundle args = new Bundle();
        args.putInt("ItemID", item.getItemId());
        fragmentS.setArguments(args);
        getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, fragmentS).commit();
        break;
}

In other fragment get the value like this

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    int itemId = getArguments().getInt("ItemID");    
    return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment, container, false);
}

So, you want to pass data to a fragment actually?

Try adding before strating a fragment transaction:

Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putInt("id", tem.getItemId());
fragmentS.setArguments(bundle);
