According to the docs for onNewIntent(): *"An activity will always be paused before receiving a new intent, so you can count on onResume() <http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Activity.html#onResume()> being called after this method.*"
The docs for onPause() state this: "Called as part of the activity lifecycle when an activity is going into the background, but has not (yet) been killed. The counterpart to onResume()<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Activity.html#onResume()> ." Given this information I would say your app is ALWAYS in the background when the new intent is received... There is no way around this.
