I have a scenario where I show a DialogFragment (using getSupportFragmentManager()) that shows a list of values and an "Add" button. If the user clicks the add button, I display another DialogFragment (using getChildFragmentManager() that consists of an EditText and Button. When the user clicks the new Button if the value passes validation, I add it to the list. If it doesn't pass validation, I show another DialogFragment that displays an error message, and an "OK" button. I would like it that when the "OK" button is pressed, the user will still see the DialogFragment with the EditText and Button so that they could look over the bad value and possibly change it. However, when the "OK" button is pressed in the error message DialogFragment, the dialog is dismissed, and only the original DialogFragment (the one with the list of values) is displayed.
How would I keep the second DialogFragment still displayed after the third one is dismissed?
EDIT: Here are some code snippets:
//clicking this button shows the first ("outer") fragment
findViewById(R.id.voicemail_notifications_email_addresses).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
AddressListDialog.newInstance(
line, AddressListDialog.VOICEMAIL_NOTIFICATIONS_EMAIL)
.show(((FragmentActivity)getContext()).getSupportFragmentManager(), "dialog");
}
});

final View v = LayoutInflater.from(getActivity()).inflate(R.layout.vm_address_list_dialog, null);

final AddressAdapter adapter = new AddressAdapter();
lv.setAdapter(adapter);
v.findViewById(R.id.voicemail_add_address_button).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

//first child fragment
