Close another activity from current one - java

I want to accomplish this structure:
Activity A is showing. If some button is pressed then open activity B (without closing current instance of A). If I press a back button of B I want just to finish B so that I can see my old instance of A. But if in activity B I press another button, I want to close A and open C.
How can I close activity A and start activity C when activity B is opened?
Explanation: When B is active the A mustn't be destroyed so that I could return to it. But if I want to open C then A must be destroyed, so that if I'd press back button of C I wouldn't see it anymore.
I already implemented the code that opens all of the activities by using startActivity() and finish() methods. All I need right now is an answer or suggetion of how could I rework my structure to accomplish my goal.
EDIT
I think I've got an idea to use startActivtyForResult() when I want to open B, so that when I'm ready to open C I'd just let A do this with closing itself.

When you Press Button C go to the ActivityC you just need to pass addFlag method with intent as follows
public void onClick(View v) {
if(v.getId()==R.id.butoonC){
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ActivityC.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
here Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP will remove all the activity from activity stack except activity B and activity C. So when u backpress from Activity B you Activity will not able to go back to Activity A.
I hope this work for u

Here is how I've solved the problem:
Activity A:
//Start Activity B
startActivityForResult(new Intent(this, B.class), 1);
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
startActivity(new Intent(this, C.class));
finish();
}
}
Activity B:
//back button press:
setResult(RESULT_CANCELED, new Intent());
finish();
//start Activity C button:
setResult(RESULT_OK, new Intent());
finish();
Hope it will help someone.

I use this and worked for me
in Activity A when a button press to go to Activity B use this code :
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(ActivityA.this, ActivityB.class);
startActivity(intent);
ActivityA.this.finish();
}
});
It is close Activity A and when back button pressed do not come back to this Activity.

ActivityResultLauncher for 3 activities

I have 3 activities.
The first activity is a map (using Google Map API). In this activity, I also have a button that will direct to second activity.
In Second activity, it's just for additional information but there is a button. When this button is clicked, it will be directed to third activity.
In third activity, there's only a button that will bring a result to first activity (maps).
This is how I assigned my first activity's button:
startActivity(new Intent(FirstActivity.this, SecondActivity.class));
And I also used ActivityResultLauncher in first activity like so:
ActivityResultLauncher<Intent> intentLaunch = registerForActivityResult(
new ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult(),
result -> {
if(result.getResultCode() == Activity.RESULT_OK){
String data = result.getData().getStringExtra("SIMPAN");
Log.d(TAG, "berhasil");
}
}
);
In my third activity's button, I assigned it like this:
third_button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("SIMPAN", "Simpan");
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();
startActivity(new Intent(ThirdActivity.this, FirstActivity.class)); // When the button is clicked, it will get back to first activity and bringing the result
}
});
But, turns out the first activity didn't get the result. I assume that I missing this particular code after using ActivityResultLauncher:
Intent intent = new Intent(FirstActivity.this, ThirdActivity.class);
intentLaunch.launch(intent);
However, it makes the application starts from third activity instead of first activity. It does receive the result (the log was showing) but it's only one time. How can I resolve this?
(Sorry for my bad english)
This is an overkill.
Simply:
Intent intent = getIntent();
String simpan = intent.getStringExtra("SIMPAN");
in your onCreate class
registerForActivityResult is used when you get a result from outside the app, such as getting a picture from the camera.

Clear stack backstack activities before starting new activity

I have android activity flow somewhat like
A->B->A
Moving from A to B and from B to A using intent and finish Activity B. On when I click on backpress I again go to activity A instead of exit from application.
I tried to set Intent Flags but was not able to achieve it.
Here is code to move from Activity A -> Activity B
Intent intent = new Intent(A.this, B.class);
startActivity(intent);
If here I backpress than I need to go to activity A again
From Activity B -> Activity A
Intent intent = new Intent(B.this, A.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
But when I backpress from here I need to exit the application
To go from B to A you don't need to do anything. If the user presses the BACK key, the default implementation calls finish() on B which will return the user to A.
If you have provided a button or something in B to go back to A, just call finish().

How startActivityForResult 2 Activity from 1 parent Activity and get onActivityResult when only 1 child is finisched

I have 3 Activities:
A: Parent Activity
B: first Child Activity
C: second Child Activity
In A Activity open B Activity when button is clicked
Intent i = new Intent(this, ActivityB.class);
startActivityForResult(i, 1);
In A Activity there is a Runnable object that in some condition open C Activity
Intent i = new Intent(this, Activityc.class);
startActivityForResult(i, 2);
All work and on device i see C Activity over B Activity over A Activity but when i close C Activity with this.finish(); in A Activity onActivityResult() event is not fired. It'll be fired only if i close the B Activity too.
How can i know in A Activity when C Activity is closed and let B Activity opened?
Whenever you wish to exit all open activities, you should press a button which loads the first Activity that runs when your application starts then clear all the other activities, then have the last remaining activity finish. to do so apply the following code in ur project
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), FirstActivity.class);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
intent.putExtra("EXIT", true);
startActivity(intent);
The above code finishes all the activities except for FirstActivity. Then we need to finish the FirstActivity's Enter the below code in Firstactivity's oncreate
if (getIntent().getBooleanExtra("EXIT", false)) {
finish();
}
Please See this

Android Java, onfinish(); moves me in an activity

I have three activities (a, b, c).
Activity a
- has one button for activity b and one button to close the app (by calling onfinish()).
- is the main activity, which runs b.
Activity b
- is the middle one which runs c.
After clicking on a back button that I placed in the header of activity c, and then clicking on the button of the a activity to close the app, I am returned to activity c. This is not the behavior I expected, any ideas about what is happening?
Further information:
activity c has onResume() because I also have an activity d. so when I click back button of activity d, it returns to activity c.
so long as I don't run the activity c, the close button works as expected.
try this.
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext() or UrActivity.this, FirstActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP|FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
startActivity(intent);
For going previous activity just call
finish() ;
at back button of any activity .don't do this
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
and from exiting the application use
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), a.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);

finish current activity and start another activity when screen being off (black)

i have developed application that consists of A activity (luncher), B activity (second), C activity (third),
what i have tried is :
when the screen is locked or turned off as you are away from the device or have pressed the power button to locked it, my goal is C activity finished and when you turn the screen on again A activity start.
Note : i'm new to android and java development .
i think we can use onPause(), method or onStop(), method for that purpose, but it acually does not work with me as below code in C activity :
protected void onPause(){
super.onPause();
Intent i = new Intent(this,A activity);
startActivity(i);
}
when i lock screen and it become black then open again it still has C activity there.
any advice to get that with onPause(), method or onStop(), method or other ways to get it, thanks
in C Activity - onPause method you can try using this code:
new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run()
{
Intent intent = new Intent(this,A activity);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION);
overridePendingTransition(0, 0);
finish();
overridePendingTransition(0, 0);
startActivity(intent);
}
this will close current activity and open selected activity.
Hope it helps.
I am not sure but try this way:-
protected void onPause()
{
Intent i = new Intent(this,A activity);
startActivity(i);
super.onPause();
}
