    if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {


        Log.i("===BACK BUTTON PRESSED===", "BACK BUTTON");

        return true;
    } else {
        Log.i("===ELSE BACK BUTTON PRESSED===", "ELSE BACK BUTTON");

        return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
    }
}

But logcat does not display any log message.

Answer 1

You can override onBackPressed() function and implement your logic there.

Please refer this android blogpost "Back and other hard keys: three stories" for more understandings.

You can overrided onKeyDown function in GroupDreams perhaps that will work
