I have two classes. First is activity, second is a fragment where I have some EditText. In activity I have a subclass with async-task and in method doInBackground I get some result, which I save to variable. How can I send this variable from subclass "my activity" to this fragment?

From Activity you send data with intent as:

Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("edttext", "From Activity");
// set Fragmentclass Arguments
Fragmentclass fragobj = new Fragmentclass();
fragobj.setArguments(bundle);

and in Fragment onCreateView method:

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    String strtext = getArguments().getString("edttext");    
    return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment, container, false);
}
