Mike, You've done half the work already, except there is a little confusion on the purpose of the finishActivity() method. That method only works the other way around (closing Activity B from Activity A).
What you need to do now is send a "result" back to Activity A telling it to call finish(). See the "Returning a Result from a Screen" section here: http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/guide/appendix/faq/commontasks.html#opennewscreen In Activity B, you simple want to do: if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) { setResult(RESULT_CANCELED); finish(); } and in Activity A, you want to handle the result callback: protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) { finish(); } } On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 12:46 PM, mike <[email protected]> wrote: > hi NightGospel,, > > what exactly did u meant??? could you please give me a sample??? > > regards, > Randika > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Android Developers" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected] > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected] > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers?hl=en -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
