Answer 1

Set the OK Button to have an OnClickListener

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View okButton = findViewById(R.id.okButtonImg); //assume you are using custom img for OK
okButton.setOnClickListener(okButtonListener);
}

In the Click Listener invoke an Intent. In the Intent you can pass information using "putExtra"

        private OnClickListener okButtonListener = new OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {
            Intent secondPageIntent = new Intent(getBaseContext(), SecondPage.class);
            secondPageIntent.putExtra("PASSVALUE","ANY  STRING HERE");
            startActivity(secondPageIntent);

            }
     };

In the second page use getExtras("PASSVALUE") to retrieve data that you passed
