document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
 WL.Logger.debug("Login init");

function onDeviceReady() {
    document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKeyDown, false);
 }

function onBackKeyDown() {
    alert("sample1 back button clicked");
    $('#page').load("pages/samplepage1.html", function(){
        currentPage.init();

    });
}

When i click on back button sample1.html page it shows alert("sample1 back button clicked") its wrking fine

document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);

      function onDeviceReady() {

     document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKeyDown, false);
 }

function onBackKeyDown() {

    alert("sample2 back button clicked");   
    $('#page').load("pages/sample2.html", function(){
        currentPage.init();

    });
};

//add back button to go back to login page

  WL.App.overrideBackButton(backFunc);
   function backFunc(){
$('#page').load(pagesHistory.pop(), function(){
    currentPage.init();

});

}

I you have more the one function onBackKeyDown the event will call the first function he finds. you can view the function code while debugging in chrome or firefox.

May I ask why you are not using the Worklight-provided API to override the physical back button?
