Hi Mike, Yes I have done similar thing earlier. And it surely works. You should have missed some entries in Activity, manifest, styles etc for making the Activity background blur/translucent. I have created a demo project to demonstrate this. Tell me how can I send u the project. mail or some

OK I must have misinterpreted your description, so you want: A - B - C - B - (close) The simple answer is to move the android:noHistory=true from the Activity B declaration, to the Activity A one. On Sat, Jun 5, 2010 at 3:25 PM, mike hasitharand...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Sean, when you set

hi Sean, yep true. then it'll redirect to the Activity A. but then it is breaking my requirement. i want Activity C to run on top of Activity B. when you set android:noHistory=true when i'm starting Activity C, Activity B will be cleared from the stack. it's almost similar to finish() before

Mike, You need to think of activities like a stack of cards. If you open one, it will be placed on top of the pack. So if you want to open a new activity from Activity B, just do use startActivity() as normal. Activity A --- Activity B -- Activity C When you close Activity C, do a

OK Mike, so reading carefully through your explanation, it looks to me that the process you want is this: A - B - C - A - (app close) Whilst what you are actually getting, with your current code, is this: A - B - C - A - A - B - (unknown) The complex nature of your activity jumping suggests

Mike, You've done half the work already, except there is a little confusion on the purpose of the finishActivity() method. That method only works the other way around (closing Activity B from Activity A). What you need to do now is send a result back to Activity A telling it to call finish().

I am a little confused by what you are trying accomplish here. You are starting ActivityB and not finishing ActivityA. When you hit the back button you want it to finish ActivityB but NOT return to ActivityA? If you didn't want ActivityA anymore, why didn't you finish it? If you want to keep
