What do exactly the Back key and the Home key on the device in B4A
Close app ? Close activity ? I don't understand exactly when i read thé guides
Thank you
Tip: switch to B4XPages and everything will be simpler.
In non-B4XPages the back button destroys the current activity and the home button pauses the activity and shows the home screen.
In B4XPages the back button hides the current page. Pages are never paused or destroyed. The home button moves the app to the background.
I tried this code to prevent back key from closing app:
B4X:
Sub B4XPage_CloseRequest As ResumableSub
Return False
End Sub
But got this error: Error occurred on line: 504 (B4XPagesManager) java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

This does work - it prevents the app closing. This statement is not itself causing your error - the error is happening because you have a coding problem somewhere else.
