B4X:

Sub btn_Indoor_Click
Update_Button_Faces
Write_To_Dat_File
Activity.Finish
End Sub

Click to expand...

what is write to dat file, is that another activity?

write_to_dat_file is a sub that writes some app data (4 Int items) to a file in case the app, while not active, is killed by the OS.

Update_button_faces is also a sub.

The problem is probably in the way you return from the setup module to the main module. Make sure that the setup activity is finished.

Presumably at some point before calling Activity.Finish in your Main activity your Setup activity has been run?

If so then what you're seeing is the default Android behaviour.

When you go from activity to activity the previous activity is added to the activity stack.
When the current activity stops, the last activity to be added to the activity stack is started.

See this link for some useful info: Tasks and Back Stack | Android Developers.

The solution (i think) is to call Activity.Finish in your Setup activity when it is stopped.
That should prevent it from being added to the activity stack - so when your Main activity stops the Setup activity will not be on the stack so will not be started.
