I did more research on this subject and I have a new situation. Activity A is the main activity and it uses the singleTask launch mode. Activity B uses the singleTop launch mode. In my app Activity A is the login activity for my application. The user enters the username and password and if it is correct I call finish() on Activity A an call startActivity to start Activty B.
If I hit the Home button while in the Activity B and then hit the home screen icon of the app something interesting happens: Activity A comes to the front. If I hit the Back button I now see Activity B. I thought to my self: If I know that the user is logged in I can call finish() in the onCreate() of Activty A.That works, meaning that while I'm in Activity B I hit the Home button, clicking the home screen app icon returns me to Activity B without displaying Activty A; so far so good. The problem now is that if I hit Back from Activity B and then click the home screen app icon of course nothing happens because Activity A calls finish(). Please let me know if I'm on the right path.
