The link you give is all very good background on tasks and the activity stack (a.k.a. 'back stack), but how does that help the OP understand what is different in third-party task killers and why it has such a different effect on his program? If the third party task killer does it by killing the hosting Linux process (as it is rumored they do), then he cannot even count on onStop() or onDestroy() being called. Unless he can count on the user running Honeycomb or later, in which case he can count on onStop().
Or are you guessing that the "force close" is due to a null pointer? That is a very common cause, but not the only one. But in any case, the OP should look in the logs to see what exception immediately preceded the force close. Perhaps after reading the link you gave;) On Wednesday, December 26, 2012 10:22:22 PM UTC-8, djhacktor wrote: > > Read this > > http://developer.android.com/guide/components/tasks-and-back-stack.html > > On Thursday, 27 December 2012 11:32:06 UTC+5:30, Amit Dwivedi wrote: >> >> In my App I have several activities which are obviously related to each >> other.
