I have written a sample widget with text view. I added onClickListener Event on the widget, that opens my activity. Now how to update the widget, when the activity is finished?

You don't "pass data" to a widget. It's a shell. It just shows something.
You do your logic in your Activity or Service, then update the look of the
widget to reflect the state of the data.
When I click on the widget, an activity having a edittextview is
displayed, now user type in that and clicks on save, the content which
he typed needs to be displayed on the widget.
I am able to see the contents, but it is not displayed instantly. It
is updated after some time.

I just want, that once i close the activity, the data i entered in
edittext should appear on the widget. I dont know how much time it
actually takes, but it does not show the message immediately

You didn't answer a single one of my questions. I'm not sure how you want
me to help you if you're not going to provide information to do so.
Good luck with your problem.

You can use AppWidgetManager and its methods outside of a widget's onUpdate.
So either broadcast an action to your widget provider telling it to update, or implement the updating somewhere else.
