java - Android intent bundle always null?

Question

I am running the below code. There are two snippets. The first is how I am setting the bundle and the second how I am retrieving it. For some reason every time i check the bundle it returns as null.

Any advice on why this is or what I have done wrong would be greatly appreciated.

    Intent intent = new Intent(this, com.hom.app.Hom.class);
        Bundle b = new Bundle();
        b.putString("WELL", "yes");
        intent.putExtras(b);
    startActivity(intent);

Retrieving Bundle:

    String well ="";
    Bundle bun = getIntent().getExtras();
    String standard = "yes";
    if(bun != null){       
        Log.v("Bundle", "Contains data");
        well = bun.getString("WELL");
        if(well == null) well = "";
        if(well == standard) method();
    }

When you are creating your intent, just put the extras right in there. you are trying to access the wrong bundle in your code above. Something like this should work.

    Intent intent = new Intent(this, com.hom.app.Hom.class);
    intent.putExtras("WELL", "yes");
    startActivity(intent);
