Android Studio back button activity

I've been trying to find out the back navigation button to lead to another activity.
Every time when I pressed the back button, it goes to the previous activity which is not what I want. I would like to set the back button that goes to another activity I want, instead of previous one.
For example, I have Activity 1, 2 and 3. I was in Activity 2 and just moved to Activity 3. But when I press the back button, it goes automatically to the previous activity which is Activity 2. I want to make it to Activity 1 and not Activity 2. Can anyone suggest me a solution please?

You can make the button to go to a specific activity, instead of having the default behavior that you described.
It can be something like this:
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Activity2.this, Activity3.class);
intent.putExtra("variable", information); //this is optional, but can be useful if you need to send a specific info to the next activity
startActivity(intent);
}

Activity 2 is parliamonar, and Activity 3 is federalparliamentary. I replaced parliamonar with Activity 1, but it still didn't solve the problem.
public class federalparliamentary extends AppCompatActivity {
Button federal;
private Object parliamonar;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_federalparliamentary);
federal = findViewById(R.id.back160);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), parliamonar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
federal = findViewById(R.id.next164);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), sar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
}
public void onClick(View V) {
Intent back = new Intent((Context) parliamonar, federalparliamentary.class);
startActivity(back);
}
}

public class federalparliamentary extends AppCompatActivity {
Button federal;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_federalparliamentary);
federal = findViewById(R.id.back160);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), parliamonar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
federal = findViewById(R.id.next164);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), sar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
}
public void Onclick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(federalparliamentary.this, politicalsystem.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
Activity 1 is "politicalsystem".
I added with #Override method, but it says that I have to remove the method, so I added outside, then it says that I have to extract interface, so clicked on it, then it gave me a bunch of list. So I chose onClick(v:View ):void, but it still didn't solve the issue. I tried in another way without #Override, but nothing changed when I tested my app. I also tried inside onCreate method which did not modified the navigation as I desired.

What happens after onClick is finished. Android

In my app after they press an on screen button. In the listener I do some check to see if they win. When they win i set a boolean like so:
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
}
}
I am wondering. Where does the code go after the onClick. Am i suppose to call the function in the onClick?
I have looked everywhere for an answer, I am very new to android programming.

If by "the function" you mean a funcion that you have developed, then Yes, you should call whatever function you want to execute in the onClick method.
For example:
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
//Example
this.informUser(aWin) //Call your function here
}
}
If by "the funcion" you mean the onClick, then no, you shouldn't call it, Android OS should do it for you.

Where does the code go after the onClick. Am i suppose to call the
function in the onClick?
It depends on what you do in the onClick.
For example :
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
}
}
In your code above, the code will stop at aWin = true;.
Now lets say you want to go to another Activity after a click happened :
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
Intent i = new Intent(this, AnotherActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
}
}
The onClick will end when your apps go to another activity.
UPDATE
Lets say you want to "refresh" your TextView after a click happened :
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
if(aWin)
myText.setText("WIN");
else
myText.setText("LOSE");
}
}
Feel free to comment if you still have some questions (although no guarantee i can answer it) :)

How to enter two activity links in another activity?

I know my question might be stupid but I am new in Android App development and the Eclipse things but reached to e problem that can't find solution in internet.
I am making multi-activity application and reached to a point where when i have two buttons in one of the activities and want each of them to lead to different other activities, the application crashes. When I lead them both to one activity, everything is fine. Here is my code and hope really my question not to be so stupid as I am thinking.
public class Home extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_home);
Button myButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.tables);
myButton.setOnClickListener(goToTables);
Button mySecondButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.reservations);
mySecondButton.setOnClickListener(goToMenu);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.home, menu);
return true;
}
private OnClickListener goToTables = new OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
doButton();
}};
private void doButton()
{
startActivity(new Intent(this, Tables.class));
}
private OnClickListener goToMenu = new OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
doSecondButton();
}};
private void doSecondButton()
{
startActivity(new Intent(this, Menu.class));
}
}
The goToTables works perfectly but I am missing something important to change in goToMenu. My other activities are: Tables and Menu. Can somebody please tell me where I am wrong? Thanks in advance!

android:onClick="dobutton" try adding this in your button tag in xml code rather then using onclicklistner.

Try changing the name of your Menu activity or add the full name path of Menu.class in your intent, eg. com.myapp.Menu.class

Phone call click for textview

Okay so I've looked and tried to make sense of some other code that I've found but nothing has been working out for me. I'm trying to get the user to click the textview and have it take them to their phones dial-er.
Here's the Java:
public class Info extends Activity {
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.moreinfo);
Button appoint =(Button) findViewById(R.id.btnAppoint);
TextView phone =(TextView) findViewById(R.id.phoneTxt);
String url = phone.getText().toString();
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(url));
appoint.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener () {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
startActivity(new Intent(Info.this, EmailContact.class));
}
});
phone.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
callIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:+"+phone.getText().toString().trim()));
startActivity(callIntent );
}
});
}
}
I've also put android: clickable = true so I don't see if that's the problem. Any help would be appreciated!

Change phone.getText().toString().trim() to use the View object supplied to the onclick method:
phone.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL);
callIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:+"+((TextView)arg0).getText().toString().trim()));
startActivity(callIntent );
}
});
Additionally, if you just want to show the dialer with a phone number loaded, you're using the wrong intent action, Intent.ACTION_DIAL instead of Intent.ACTION_CALL will show the dialer. The Intent.ACTION_CALL that you're using will actually initiate the phone call, and to make that work, you need to add the appropriate permission to your Manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />

Based on your description its red because if you're going to use an class method level object within an anonymous obejct, the object must be defined as final.
final TextView phone =(TextView) findViewById(R.id.phoneTxt);
And for further measure, ensure you are using the right permission to do the call action in your manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />

How to get information about a button click on 1st activity and use it in the 3rd activity? - android

well there are 3 activities say Act1, Act2 and Act3.
in Act1 there are three buttons say But1, But2 and But3.
if we click any of the 3 three buttons it will end up showing Act2.
in Act2 there is only one button say Done.
my problem is when i click on the button Done in Act2 i should get the information about the button which is clicked in Act1 to show Act2 in a TextView in Act3.
i think i have made it clear..
i just need to know how to pass the information of the button click in Act1 to Act3
should i use bundles or something else? pls help me out with the logic and if possible a sample code? :)

You have a few options.
1) The Hardcore option would be to create a database and save / query the information.
2) You could also write to sharedPreferences.
SharedPrefExample
3) As was mentioned in the comment, if your only talking from one activity to another you can just intent.putExtra("key", value)
4) Lastly you can extend Application
Here is a good post that deals with global variables. How to declare global variables in Android?

Try to Use Intent
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putInt("BtnAID", ID);
Intent It = new Intent();
It.setClass(A.this, B.class);
It.putExtras(bundle);
startActivity(It);
}

You can use SharedPreferences to store which button was pressed.
SharedPreferences appSharedPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this.getApplicationContext());
Editor prefsEditor = appSharedPrefs.edit();
Button b1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
b1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
prefsEditor.putString("buttonPressed", "Button1");
prefsEditor.commit();
}
});
Button b2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button2);
b2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
prefsEditor.putString("buttonPressed", "Button2");
prefsEditor.commit();
}
});
Button b3 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button3);
b3.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
prefsEditor.putString("buttonPressed", "Button3");
prefsEditor.commit();
}
});
And in the Activity in which you want to fetch which button was pressed:
SharedPreferences appSharedPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this.getApplicationContext());
String whichButton = appSharedPrefs.getString("buttonPressed", "");
if(whichButton.equals("Button1")
//do something
if(whichButton.equals("Button2")
//do something
if(whichButton.equals("Button3")
//do something
