Hi all.
I'm experiencing kind of strange behavior of my application after hard
Home button is pressed.
When you press Home, everything is OK - my app goes to the background,
showing Home screen. But if you try to choose my app in the main menu
or in the list of last tasks it behaves like it was not started before
and does not show the last activity you were on - it just starts from
scratch, namely, shows the splash screen and . Moreover, old
activities of this app remain on the activities stack, and previous
instance of the app is not terminated - so if you press Back for a few
times you'll just run into those activities which were undoubtedly
started during the previous session of work with my app. Splash screen
is filtered by "android.intent.action.MAIN" filter and
"android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" category.
The strange thing is that all of that happens despite the fact that I
do not intercept any Back key hits, or override any onPause or
onResume methods. What's happening contradicts with my understanding
of Android app lifecycle - I was sure that when you hit Home an app
just goes to the background, and when you choose it in the menu later
- it just unwinds and does not start anew. (Of course, unless stuff
like that is stated in the app manifest or corresponding methods are
overridden or something else).
I hope you will be able to help me. Any advice on what to pay
attention to or where to search for solution would be really great.

Regards, Alex
