Hi,

I am new to android. I done an application with four to five screen navication. When i come back from one screen to previos screen. It come out the application. What should i need to do when i press back button in the emulator it should come one by one.

I am urgently in need of this. Can any one can help.

Thanks and Rgards,
Bala.

Hello balajimani,

how did you advance from one Activity to another
With startActivity() or startSubActivity() Did you use finish() with the 'old' Activities

With me startSubActivity() and no finish() after that works well.

hi,

Thanks for your reply..

can i have some example for that..

Thanks and Regards,
Balaji.

var defined before the oncreate used for creating subActivity


Going to another screen with subactivity:


If you use this method every time you open a new screen you will be able to use the back button.
If you have the finish() command somewhere in your code, then you won't be able to return to this screen since you said you are done with that one.

fixed some grammar

Exactly

In that I am not going for another java class. I am having different XML file. I navigating in the same java file using different XML files.

In this how i need to use the above mentioned method.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

I do not think you can use the Back button if you change your ContentView all the time. (I am supposing you do that since you change the XML all the time)
Plusminus might know more, but I am pretty sure you can't navigate back.

Hello guys,

perhaps it is possible to intercept the BACK-Key.
There is at least a Keycode: KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK what means that it is probably doable in a way.
