Go back to previous activity without touching the current

I have two activity (ACT 1 and ACT 2):

ACT1 contains the button "next" with the code:

case R.id.next: 
            Intent intent = new Intent(this, ACT2.class);
            intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
            this.startActivity(intent);
            break;
        }

ACT2 contains a button "back" no code for now.

so my problem I do not know what change in the button "next" and what to put in the button "back" to:

next: Open ACT2 if it is never open else go ACT2

back: back to ACT1

PS : I will not destroy "ACT2" if I go back a "ACT1", because I do not want to lose the contents entry

try this as per my suggestion..try like that.

        // Write code in Next button click Event
        Intent intent = new Intent(ACT1.this, ACT2.class);            
        startActivity(intent);
        finish();

        // Write code in Back button click Event
        Intent intent = new Intent(ACT2.this, ACT1.class);            
        startActivity(intent);
        finish();

In the onClick() method of BACK use finish() method, this destroys the current Activity and moves to the previous opened activity.
