There is technically no such things as "application-going-to-background", it's more like "another Activity has come to foreground". Even when you press the home key, you're not really putting you application in the background - you're bringing the Home activity to the foreground. So this concept doesn't really make sense in Android. If you want to do what you describe, you will have to use the "track each Activity method", painful as it may be with your numerous activities. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
