Just use FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP

When user clicks button:

Intent intent = new Intent(ActivityD.this, ActivityB.class);
Intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);

When user presses back:

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(ActivityD.this, ActivityA.class);
        intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
        intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
        startActivity(intent);
    }
    return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}

This code will take the user to first activity.The activity won't be recreated because of FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP. When activity is already on back stack the onNewIntent() will be invoked in which you can use data from intent for example.

If you want such behaviors as default for yours activities put these flags to android manifest into activity declarations.

//For Back btn on screen 4

Onclick(View v)
{
if(v==Backbtn)
{
finish();
startActivity(new intent(this,SecondActivity.class));
}
}

// for back key press to return to 1 screen

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
        switch (keyCode) {
        case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK:
            startActivity(new intent(this,FirstActivity.class));
                     return true;
        }
        return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
    }
