Its not because of the order of calling methods in onCreate() ..You are getting this exception because of this line..

 if(backFlag){
    onCreate(mBundle);
    backFlag=false;
}else{
    finish();
}

when you backpressd you are agin calling onCreate() method of the activity It will try again call the requestWindowFeature() but all the views alreay added so its gives you a exception remove onCreate() from onBackPressed() then it will work fine.

If you dont want to close your activity onBackpressed dont call super.onBackpressed thats it..

Update like this..

 if(backFlag){
          backFlag=false;
}else{
    finish();
}

requestFeature() must be called before adding content

=> Exception itself suggest you that Don't call requestFeature() before adding content (i.e. setContentView())

Now, Issue is at this point:

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.window_title);

Solution:

getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.window_title);  
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

Update:

One more thing, why do you need to call onCreate() again in onBackKeyPressed()?

Change your onCreate()

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
       setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
       mBundle=savedInstanceState;

      requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE);

            getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.window_title);  
               .
               .
               .
 }

Move this line
getWindow().setFeatureInt(Window.FEATURE_CUSTOM_TITLE, R.layout.window_title);
above
setContentView(....);
