If what you want is to bring up the old activity, why don't you use PendingIntent.getActivity() it will get it and create it if it doesn't exist (unless you set the flag FLAG_NO_CREATE) you can check about it here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/PendingIntent.html

It depends on the Flags that you set on the Intent, see: public Intent setFlags (int flags)
