Another (simpler) option:
- Add a click listener to you dialog
- When it fires, get the EditText from the dialog (it's passed in as a
parameter to the listener)
- Get the text from the EditText object and pass it to the TextView (which I
assume you have / can get a reference to) since it's in the same actitivty
- Profit
