[android-developers] Re: Possible to Detect if OnResume is because Back button was hit?
A) I do some logging of information if a user goes back to a page from a back button versus some other way of accessing the page. B) I had tried the startActivityForResults but was curious what other way people have done it.

Are you saying if you're on Activity A -> Activity B, hit Back Button from Activity B, a static flag is set to true on the back key, When Activity A resumes, you check that static variable, and do your logic, then set the flag back to false?

I kind of do something like this. I set a flag to false onResume and then set it true if the back button is hit. onPause, if that flag is true, I know it's because my user is backing out and I can respond in a certain way (knowing that we'll be going back to a previous activity). The previous activity won't know anything about this, though. I use a static music manager and that is how I handle inter- menu game music. What's your specific need? Maybe I can help out more then.
