Question

I have four activities, A, B, C and D. app starts with activity A, then it goes to B by using explicit intend, then C and then D in same way. From D, if I want to come back to directly B or A, how it can be done?

Answer 1

in Activity A

public void onCreate()
{
//when u want to start new activity
startActivity(intent); //starting activity to B
}

in Activity B

public void onCreate()
{
//when u want to start new activity
startActivityForResult(intent, 10//any code value); //starting activity to c
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
{
if(resultCode==25)
{
finish();
}
}

in Activity C

public void onCreate()
{
//when u want to go back to Actitvity A
setResult(25);
finish();
}

Explanation

1)in activity “A” ur starting one fresh activity to “B”
2)in “B” activity ,ur starting one activity to “C” ,using startActivityForResult method
3)in “C” activity ,when u finish,it obviously go to “B” activity,with result code which u set.and if it’s match it will close “B” activity ,and go to “A” activity

4)This is one simple trick to skip one or more activity
