navigation in a android app with FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY & startActivityForResult

I have a problem with navigation in an android app with FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY and startActivityForResult.

Here is an example:

I have page A and page B. I go from A to B with the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY. Then I take a picture with startActivityForResult.

The problem is, now I get back to page A, but I want to get back to page B.

When I remove the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY I have page B in the history which I don't want to have.

How to resolve this problem?

You are moving from

1. Page A -> Page B with flag FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY

2. You start another activity from Page B with startActivityForResult

Now when you come back no Page B found bcoz of the flag FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY.

Now remove the flag FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY from Page B activty and when you get the callback in onActivityResult() of your Page B, finish() the page B activity.

It's truly depend on your code.

Hope you had try by this way.

Intent intent = new Intent(this, SomeOtherClass.class);

intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY); // do not keep this intent in history.

startActivity(intent);

Try it or upload your code so i can see in detail.

Use the history, but when you come back to your page B, just call this.finish(). This activity will end. You will probably see your page B for a second (could be depend on your code, to test).

Hope this solution could help you.
