So I created my first app and it’s great. However, I wanted to improve it, so I found out how and was able to eliminate
3 pages from the multipage, using comboboxes instead of tons of buttons.

Great.

However, when I use the back button (top navigation bar) instead of going to the 1st page of the new app with 3 pages, it reverts back
to the previous app with 5 pages. This happens when testing and deploying to a android app.

I tried everything – creating a new app, emptying caches and deleting files, and deleting everything in the www folder and re-building the app.

No matter what I try, it still reverts back to the old app if I press the BACK button. I even tried re-editing the BACK button so that instead of using ‘Go Back’ to go to the 1st page, it now is hard-wired to go to the 1st page. Same problem.

Before I scrap this and start over again, does anyone have a suggestion as to how to fix this?

Here is a pictorial version of my problem:

Here is the new app:

Press the member page at the bottom to go to the member selection page:

Choose a member:

Press the back button at the top:

Now my old app is back (notice the 5 pages at the bottom compared to 3)!

This happens whether I simply test it, compile it or create an android .apk and use it
as an app on my android phone.

I have deleted everything in the www folder. I have deleted all traces of the old app including
the project files. I even completely re-designed the app without loading or copying and pasting anything,
totally from scratch and this problem still happens. It’s driving me nuts and I have to have
this ready for Tuesday!

I hope someone has a solution to this.

I figured it out.

It turns out all of my screens (other mobi files) were pointing to the old project. It was tedium, but I fixed all the files and now it works flawlessly.

Human error strikes again.
