I am new to Android, and I am trying to make a page where I can swipe from left to right and right to left to go to previous and next pages. I spent a lot of time looking up and trying different things. For some reason, when I swipe (no matter which direction), it only shows next picture. It should have shown me previous picture when I swipe right to left. Any help will be highly appreciated! Thanks so much for your time :)

public class MyGestureDetector extends SimpleOnGestureListener
{
private static final int SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE = 120;
private static final int SWIPE_MAX_OFF_PATH = 250;
private static final int SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY = 200;
public boolean isRightToLeft = false;

@Override
public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX, float velocityY) 
{
    try {
        if (Math.abs(e1.getY() - e2.getY()) > SWIPE_MAX_OFF_PATH)
            return false;
        // right to left swipe
     // right to left swipe
        if(e1.getX() - e2.getX() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) {
            isRightToLeft = true;
            return true;
        }               
       // left to right swipe
        else if (e2.getX() - e1.getX() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) {
            isRightToLeft = false;
            return true;

        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        // nothing
    }
    return false;
}
