Hi Mark,

Here's the call:

   intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP |
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);

same behavior though, 'B' gets its onCreate() method called. I added
an override for onNewIntent() just to see if it would be called, but
it isn't either, I must be missing something simple!

Thanks
