Question

I am uploading a video using FTP. I am showing a notification also for that. If I click the notification it will take me to the application screen. So the same screen will run two times. So I need to click back button two times. I want to avoid this. Please help me…

public class loadVideo extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
        String status = null;
        FTPClient ftp = new FTPClient();
        InputStream in = null;
        int progress = 2;
        String dbftpserver, dbftpusername, dbftpPassword, dbftpPort,
                dbftpDirPath = null;
        String hostName, username, password = null;
        NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getApplicationContext()
                .getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

        int id = 10;

        @Override
        protected Void doInBackground(Void... arg0) {
            UUID uniqueKey = UUID.randomUUID();
            fname = uniqueKey.toString();
            Log.e("UNIQUE NAME", fname);
            String strquery1 = "SELECT FTP_Server,FTP_Username,FTP_Password,FTP_PORT,FTP_Directory_Path FROM hwd_settings WHERE ID = 1 ";
            Cursor mCursor = (MainscreenActivity.JEEMAHWDroidDB).rawQuery(
                    strquery1, null);
            if (mCursor.getCount() != 0) {
                mCursor.moveToLast();
                for (int i = mCursor.getCount() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
                    dbftpserver = mCursor.getString(0);
                    dbftpusername = mCursor.getString(1);
                    dbftpPassword = mCursor.getString(2);
                    dbftpPort = mCursor.getString(3);
                    dbftpDirPath = mCursor.getString(4);

                ftp.changeWorkingDirectory(dbftpDirPath + "uploads");
                int reply = ftp.getReplyCode();
                System.out.println("Received Reply from FTP Connection:"
                        + reply);

Try setting android:launchMode="singleInstance" for MainscreenActivity in your AndroidManifest.xml
