I may be a bit late.

But i've found the, in my opinion, best solution for the Recent Apps Button Problem:

@Override
public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus) {
    super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus);
    if (&& !hasFocus) {
        // Close every kind of system dialog
        Intent closeDialog = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CLOSE_SYSTEM_DIALOGS);
        sendBroadcast(closeDialog);

        // send task back to front
        ActivityManager activityManager =
                (ActivityManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
        activityManager.moveTaskToFront(getTaskId(), 0);
    }
}

The "send task back to front" part will prevent the pull down of the Notification bar by simply sending it back up instantly and will close the Recent Apps View. The other one is to close the "Shutdown/Restart" View when he tries to shut down his phone.

Now Excuse my English and have a nice Day.
