Moving from fragment to fragment by new activity

I am working on an application that is currently using moving content to ImageView

from one chunk to another with the same activity. It works fine, but I figured out that my target fragment should have its own activity.

So let's say I have an Activity A that contains Fragment 1 And I have an Activity B that contains Fragment 2 . I need to transition a common element from Fragment 1 to Fragment 2 .

Here's what I have done so far: In the callback method from fragment 1 to activity A, I pass the selected object as well as the image I want to navigate from.

Activity A

 @Override
public void OnPhotographSelected(Photograph selectedPhoto,ImageView image) {
    Intent i= new Intent(this, PhotoDetailActivity.class);
    i.putExtra("photo_OBJ", selectedPhoto);
    i.putExtra("transitionName", image.getTransitionName());
    startActivity(i, ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, image, "mainPhoto").toBundle());
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

Activity B

 @Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS);
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_photo_detail);
    Photograph photoObj=new Photograph();
    Bundle b = getIntent().getExtras();
    String transitionName="";
    if(b!=null)
    {
        photoObj=(Photograph)b.getSerializable("photo_OBJ");
        transitionName=b.getString("transitionName");
    }
    PhotoDetailFragment pdf = PhotoDetailFragment.newInstance(photoObj);
    pdf.setSharedElementReturnTransition(TransitionInflater.from(this).inflateTransition(R.transition.change_image_transform));
    pdf.setSharedElementEnterTransition(TransitionInflater.from(this).inflateTransition(R.transition.change_image_transform));
    pdf.setImageTransitionId(transitionName);
    FragmentTransaction trans = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
    trans.replace(R.id.photo_detail_content, pdf);
    trans.commit();
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

Fragment 2

 mainImg.setTransitionName(mImageTransitionID);

      

        
        
        
      

    

Theme of the event

 <item name="android:windowActivityTransitions">true</item>

      

        
        
        
      

    

I don't see the content transition at runtime. As I mentioned earlier, this transition worked correctly from fragment to fragment within the same activity. It's also worth noting that Fragment 1 is a gridview, so I have to maintain the transitionNames myself, so they are unique, which is why you see calls to setTransitionName at runtime.

Any idea why I am not seeing the transition?
