Go back screen when back button is pressed on android does not work, app quits

RudolfVonKrugstein

I am trying to implement a behavior on android when the back-button is pressed. So I do this in main.qml (in the ApplicationWindow):

 onClosing: {
        console.log("Testing")
        if (Qt.platform.os == "android") {
            console.log("Testing for andorid")
            if (stackView.depth > 1) {
                stackView.pop();
                console.log("Closing")
                close.accepted = true;
            } else { Qt.quit(); }
        }
    }

If I press the back button on android, this is the output:

D/Aerger  ( 5712): qrc:/main.qml:66 (onClosing): qml: Testing
D/Aerger  ( 5712): qrc:/main.qml:68 (onClosing): qml: Testing for andorid
D/Aerger  ( 5712): qrc:/main.qml:71 (onClosing): qml: Closing
I/ActivityManager(  561): Process de.goodpoint_hd.aerger (pid 5712) has died

AND the application quits! From the output, I can see that "close.accepted = true" is called. Should that not prevent the event from having an effect?

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Not sure if you resolved your issue or not, but a 'solution' was posted here

Hey,you can go to the previous screen using back button on your Android Phone
by using this code.

Keys.onReleased: {
if (event.key === Qt.Key_Back) {
console.log("Back button of phone pressed")
event.accepted = true
}
}
