Bundle is null when starting an activity from a listener using intent-CodePudding

The bundle is null when I use this code. The Logcat shows:

 onSuccess: starting activity with intent
 getTokenFromIntent: bundle IS null (true)

MyListenerService.java

 Bundle bundle = new Bundle();

 bundle.putString("Name",message.getName());

 Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MainActivity.class);
 intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
 intent.putExtras(bundle);

 Log.d(TAG, "onSuccess: starting activity with intent");
 startActivity(intent);

MainActivity.java

 TokenMessage token = null;

 Intent intent = getIntent();
 if (intent!=null) {
     Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();

     if (bundle!=null) {

          token = new TokenMessage();
          token.setName(bundle.getString("Name"));

        } else {
            Log.d(TAG, "getTokenFromIntent: bundle IS null ("   (bundle==null)   ")");
        }

    } else {
        Log.d(TAG, "getTokenFromIntent: intent IS null ("   (intent==null)   ")");
    }

I have this working in a similar module of another project and have been comparing them. The only notable difference is that the working MainActivity extends Activity, and this one extends AppCompatActivity.

I looked at this, but code seems consistent as it does use a bundle. I also reviewed this, but mine is basic and does pass values like demonstrated. I reviewed this one but it did not have a formal answer, but I have an example where I use a bundle which works and so do many of the examples. This one didn't have an accepted answer.

I must be missing something. Maybe it's a stupid little mistake but it's driving me a little crazy.

When we start the activity from Service or with singleTask flag the Intent should be retrieved from onNewIntent method.
