onResume never been called when click the phone hardware back button on android?

Question

I'm facing this problem I have MainActivity and SettingsPreference so i want to reload adapter on MainActivity when i return from settings to MainActivity i used onResume() it worked vary good when i click on ActionBar back button, but when i try it on hardware back button it it never been called,i find out that the system calls on onPostResume() instead of onResume() so try to use it, but the changes are never been applied

this is the SettingsActivity i'm using

This code works when the ActionBar back button is pressed

      @Override
          protected void onResume() {
              super.onResume();
              dataFromSharedPrefrence = getSettingsSharedPreferences();
              adapterExample.notifyDataSetChanged();

          }

The system calls onPostResume() when hardware back button is pressed but the changes never applied

@Override
        protected void onPostResume() {
              super.onPostResume();
              dataFromSharedPrefrence = getSettingsSharedPreferences();
              adapterExample.notifyDataSetChanged();
}

This is the SettingsActivity

public class SettingsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.settings_activity);
        getSupportFragmentManager()
                .beginTransaction()
                .replace(R.id.settings, new SettingsFragment())
                .commit();
        ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
        if (actionBar != null) {
            actionBar.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
        }
    }


    public static class SettingsFragment extends PreferenceFragmentCompat {
        @Override
        public void onCreatePreferences(Bundle savedInstanceState, String rootKey) {
            setPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.root_preferences, rootKey);
        }
    }

I find out this difference when i Override lifecycle methods

Answer 1

Try this:

Instead of using onResume() try onStart() :

  @Override
      protected void onStart() {
          super.onStart();
          dataFromSharedPrefrence = getSettingsSharedPreferences();
          adapterExample.notifyDataSetChanged();

      }
