You were wrong, perhaps you may not have noticed that you had returned to the calling activity. You have to supply a request code when calling a subactivity. INVITE_COMPLETED sounds a bit like it could represent a result code. Result codes like RESULT_OK and RESULT_CANCELED are predefined finals of the Activity class. If you use

startActivityForResult(intent, MY_REQUEST_CODE);

you can then override onActivityResult() and catch that request code (which is self defined in the starting activity) there. This is what it looks like:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
    if (requestCode == MY_REQUEST_CODE) {
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
        // do something useful
        }
    }
}
