The tracker will only track the activity where it's executed. So, why don't you subclass an Activity which start it every time on onCreate:

public class GAnalyticsActivity extends Activity{

    public void onCreate(Bundle icicle){
        super.onCreate(icile);
        tracker = GoogleAnalyticsTracker.getInstance();
        tracker.start("UA-xxxxxxxxx", this);
    }

    // same for on destroy
}

Then, you extends that class for every activity you use:

public class YourActivity extends GAnalyticsActivity{
    public void onCreate(Bundle icicle){
        super.onCreate(icile);
        // whatever you do here you can be sure 
        // that the tracker has already been started
    }
}
