Sorry for not being very clear. Yes, by native homescreen I mean the same as when user presses home button.
I don't see a difference in behavior between using ACTION_VIEW AND ACTION_DIAL wrt to the back key press behavior - I still am taken back to native homescreen instead of my app (when I press the back key from native dialer) There difference with using ACTION_VIEW with a number and ACTION_VIEW without a number. The difference being, in the second case I get taken to the native dialer overlayed by the dialog asking me to 'Complete action using'. I'm testing on Nexus one and HTC incredible.
