Android activity recreate itself
My app normally works just fine, until I face a strange problem on specific device. There are 2 activities in App. After I start ActivityB inside of ActivityA, ActivityA starts with no issue. However, after I go back to the ActivityA with pushing back hardware button or calling finish(); inside of closeButton in ActivityB, ActivityA reloads itself. It triggers onCreate() again and reloads all its contents. And I'm not changing orientation of phone. This strange behavior only appears in 15 phones over 1.000 download of app.
This problem only occurs on Galaxy S3 Android OS 4.1.2. And this is also strange.
Do you have any idea why this is happening?
When I start a new Activity inside of button listener like this:
ActivityA.java (MesajlarListViewActivity)
public class MesajlarListViewActivity extends TrackedActivity {
Context context = null;
// contacts JSONArray
JSONArray contacts = null;
ArrayList<Message> productArray = new ArrayList<Message>();

{

setContentView(R.layout.mesajlar_list);
context = this;
kapatButton = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.kapat_button);
/* kapat button onclick listener. */
// =================================================================================================================
kapatButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

{
// Set vibration on touch.

finish();
}
});
// =================================================================================================================
//Progress bar.
profilInfoProgress = (HoloProgressIndicator) findViewById(R.id.profil_info_progress);
// cheking internet connectivity.
if(KnetGenericClass.checkInternetConnection(context))
{
// start task!
/* internet var ise web service baglantisi kurmaya baslayabiliriz. */
startActivityIndicatorWithThread();
}
else
{
KnetGenericClass.printErrorMessage(context, "Bağlantı Hatası",
"Lütfen internet bağlantınızı kontrol ediniz.");
}
productList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.product_list);
adapter = new ProductAdapter(this, R.layout.message_row, productArray);
productList.setAdapter(adapter);
// When user click a view on list view new page is appearing.

{
// Set vibration on touch.

Edit: Not only these two activities have this problem, all the activities acting same behavior on some phones.

Check to see whether Don't keep activities under Settings > System > Developer options > Apps is enabled or not.
