Actually you are able to return to your calling activity taking a different approach. If the webpage you are calling is handled by you or allows you to assign a callback when the user finishes doing dome processing, then you can set that callback to a URI, and assign that URI to your calling activity, if the activity launch mode is singleTask, then you're going to be able to resume your activity.

The only thing that I haven't resolved is that I don't know how to remove the browser from the stack once it returns to your calling activity. I want to accomplish this because once you leave your app, android pops the browser activity to the front, forcing the user to finish it by himself.
