How to finish current activity in Android

by

If you are doing a loading screen, just set the parameter to not keep it in activity stack. In your manifest.xml, where you define your activity do:

<activity android:name=".LoadingScreen" android:noHistory="true" ... />

And in your code there is no need to call .finish() anymore. Just do startActivity(i);

There is also no need to keep a instance of your current activity in a separate field. You can always access it like LoadingScreen.this.doSomething() instead of private LoadingScreen loadingScreen;
