how to override action bar back button in android?

Question

I want to customize the activity back button in action bar, not in hard key back button. I have overriden the onBackPressed() method. It works with my emulator

Answer 1

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
    // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
    // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
    int id = item.getItemId();
    if (id == android.R.id.home) {
        onBackPressed();
        return true;
    }
    //noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
    if (id == R.id.signIn) {
        return true;
    }

    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
///////////////////
@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
    super.onBackPressed();
    finish();
}
