If i understand you correctly, you'd want to assign 'singleTop' to an activity's Launch Mode (in the manifest).
This mode makes sure that there is at most one instance of your activity in your app, never more than one. When a 'singleTop' activity is created, its onCreate method is called. When a 'singleTop' activity is brought back to the front by some other activity/context calling startActivity with an intent, its onNewIntent method is called (be sure to call setIntent(...) within the onNewIntent method). (When a (singleTop) activity is brought back to the front by a 'BACK- key' press, the activity's onStart, onResume methods are called) On Jan 28, 5:27 pm, Moto <[email protected]> wrote: > Not sure you understand the question or I don't understand the process so > please let me explain what I think it's happening. > > Using flag FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT brings the activities to the > front.
