I think this will just work fine: android.os.Process.killProcess(android.os.Process.myPid()); As far as I know, it kills the current DalvikVM right on the spot, so be careful.

[android-developers] Re: Close Application
This does NOT exit the application, it just kills its current process, and if the user is down in a couple activities, all this ends up doing is removing the top activity (because it went away without saving its state) and goes to the previous one. And if there are other things running in the process such as services, they will be started right back up. Also, notice how NO standard applications in android have a quit command? This is not a standard part of the android UI model, and there is no need for it.

Doesn't work. It just closes the active Activity and changes to the last Activity.

Android kills your application if it is unused for long time.Your job is to close all application's activities with finish() method.

[android-developers] Re: Close Application
you have to close all application's activities! When you change activity, you have to call finish() on old activity, so just one activity is shown on screen and in stack. 2009/8/10 Blackmarket pascal.se...@gmail.com Doesn't work.

It really depends on the structure of your app, but one trick you might employ is to launch your various activities with startActivityForResult(intent, ID); and then override onActivityResult to watch for a return value from the activity you launched.
