I have implemented presently back button like below

<Button
                android:id="@+id/back"
                style="@style/NavButtons"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="30dp"
                android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
                android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
                android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
                android:background="@drawable/back"
                android:onClick="finishActivity"
                android:paddingLeft="5dp" />

and in code i am doing

public void finishActivity(View v) {
        finish();
    }

You can use this:

super.onbackpressed();

if you want to do the same as the devices back button, just programmatically.
