            intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY);
            startActivity(intent);}

                return "fail";
            }
        }

You can implement this from your AndroidManifest.xml file, just add android:noHistory="true" attribute in those <activity> you want

hope this helps..
