Blank activity is showing after destroying all fragments

Question

I have created a main activity which has a fragment container in it, I am replacing many fragments in it on navigation menu option select. Its working fine, but the problem is:

1. When I click a navigation item twice, two identical fragments open, i have to press the back button twice to go back.
2. When all fragments are destroyed after pressing back, I see an empty page (which may be main activity page I guess).

            super.onBackPressed();

    }
}

Please suggest me on this.

Answer 1

This will fix your second problem, when you add fragments to your container they will be add to the stack,

if (getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() == 1) {
            finish();
        }
        else {
            super.onBackPressed();
        }

so when the stack entry count is 1 you have to finish the activity.

For the first problem you have to use "pop back stack" while adding the same fragment again use : getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStack();
