I'm facing exactly the same problem.
I'd also like to reuse an already started activity (A) in the
background
but no luck so far. I haven't tried singleInstance but I tried to set
various
launch flags (Intent.setLaunchFlags) on the Intent being used to
restart A,
however, always a new instance of A was created.
BTW, my activity B from where I try to reuse A is also a MapActivity.

I'd also like to set intent-filters on A so that it can be accessed
from
other activities, then one can end up with several instances of A
in the background...
