Block Back Button In Android

I want to block hardware back button in android ,in order to prevent from going back to other activity.. Thanks in advance...

Solution 1:

Here is code that allows you to handle the back key in an activity correctly on all versions of the platform:

@OverridepublicbooleanonKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event)  {
    if (  Integer.valueOf(android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK) < 7//Instead use android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.ECLAIR
            && keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK
            && event.getRepeatCount() == 0) {
        // Take care of calling this method on earlier versions of// the platform where it doesn't exist.onBackPressed();
    }

    returnsuper.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}

@OverridepublicvoidonBackPressed() {
    // This will be called either automatically for you on 2.0// or later, or by the code above on earlier versions of the// platform.return;
}

Solution 2:

If the 'other activity' is yours, you can set it to not appear in the history list.

Otherwise, remember that the phone belongs to the user and not to you, and stop trying to tell them what they can and can't do with THEIR device.
