Question

I want ask like in title. how to move/send activity to background in android without pause it? for example in this method:

public void onBackPressed () {
    //here what i should wrote to back my previous activity and not stop or pause current
}

Answer 1

That is not possible. By definition:

• onPause() will be called when the activity no longer is in the foreground from an input standpoint

• onStop() will be called when the activity no longer is in the foreground from a visibility standpoint
