Such as select below step on system.

I want to implement the same behavior by code.
How can I do it?

Answer 1

You can write below line of code to kill your App process. This is what the code runs when you click the Force Stop in

Settings --> Manage Applications

android.os.Process.killProcess(android.os.Process.myPid());
