   android:layout_x="0px"
      android:layout_y="150px"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

/>

</AbsoluteLayout>

MultipleScreenSameLayout.java

package com.example.MultipleScreenSameLayout;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;

public class MultipleScreenSameLayout extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        
        Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnClick);
  b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

   public void onClick(View arg0) {
    // here i call new screen;
    Intent i = new Intent(MultipleScreenSameLayout.this,
      NewScreen.class);
    startActivity(i);
   }
  });
    }
}

NewScreen.java

package com.example.MultipleScreenSameLayout;


import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class NewScreen extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        
        TextView tvB=(TextView) findViewById(R.id.labelB);
        tvB.setText("Address:");
        
        TextView tvA=(TextView) findViewById(R.id.labelA);
        tvA.setText("Location:");
        
        Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnClick);
        b.setText("Back");
  
  b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
   public void onClick(View arg0) {
    setResult(RESULT_OK);
    finish();
   }
  });
    }
}
