Question

I use intent to go to other Activity

This is my way: Activity A -> B -> C -> D -> E.

When i press Back, it go E -> D -> C-> B-> A

but, in Activity E, when press Back, i want to come back to C, so i use

mIntent.setClass(E.this, C.class);
startActivity(mIntent);

My problems is: When i come to C from E, i press back, it come back to E. But i want to come back to B like C-> B-> A.

In my opinion, when i use above code, i create new Activity C, so i cant come back to Activity B

How can i solve it?

Thanks you so much

Answer 1

Call finish() on D when you move to E, this will remove them from the stack and cause E to go to C. Your stack will look like E, C, B, A because D is removed.
