Good afternoon ladies and gents, Is there a way to prevent the physical Back button on android phones to have an effect while in the app ? His default effect is to go back to the previous page but it creates some problems. I can't find where it would be. I guessed in BT_fragment but since I don't know how this button is called, I can't trace it in the code, if it is somewhere. Cheers !

The above relates to Eclipse. Hopefully it is still the same in AS. Comments BT_activity_host - line 535 onBackPressed ... is where the back button is handled. The above relates to Eclipse.

I put the whole thing between /* / but it keeps doing the same thing. I guess by default it was what it's meant to do on the phone, which is "go back". How can I tell it to not do anything ?

So just have: @Override public void onBackPressed() { } Comments How about keeping the method there, but doing nothing. So just have: @Override public void onBackPressed() { }
