Dear Android Community,

I'm having a strage problem and have no idea what might be wrong. I
have an option menu in an Activity, let's call it A, in which one of
the options needs to start a new Activity, B, and close A. The problem
is that the caller activity, B, is not closing. Instead Activity B is
launched, closes and goes back to Activity A. Weird!

Here's a sample of my code...

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
            case x:
                .......//do something
                break;
            case y:
                ......//do something else
                break;
            case z:
                Intent intent = new Intent(A.this, B.class);
                startActivity(intent);
                this.finish();
                break;
        }
        return true;
}

I have tried moving the order in every way possible and some other
workarounds I have found online, but nothing seems to work. I hope
someone has encountered this problem before or has an idea of what
might be wrong. Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Jalal
