Android - Start new Activity without pausing the current

Suppose current Activity called "A1" is running. I want to start Activity "A2", but do not pause(call onPause()) and then resume "A1" when returning with back button. Is there a way to achieve this?

What you're trying to achieve is not feasible. However, Android 3.0 has introduced the concept of Fragments. Fragment roughly speaking is a part of Activity layout with its own logic. By combining different Fragments you can create a multipart layout which will look like you have more than one Activity running at the same. Fragments are also supported in Android versions lower than 3.0 if using the Support Library. You can take advantage of Fragments concept in your application as it looks like this is the case. Hope this helps.
