    <p>I've looked at similar questions regarding a similar issue, but I am yet to find a solution to my problem.</p> <p>I have an application using navigation drawer. I have a MainActivity, various FragmentActivities &amp; various fragment layouts. My MainActivity code is below:</p> <pre><code>public class MainActivity extends Activity { private DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout; private ListView mDrawerList; private ActionBarDrawerToggle mDrawerToggle; // nav drawer title private CharSequence mDrawerTitle; // used to store app title private CharSequence mTitle; // slide menu items private String[] navMenuTitles; private TypedArray navMenuIcons; private ArrayList&lt;NavDrawerItem&gt; navDrawerItems; private NavDrawerListAdapter adapter; MediaPlayer ourSong; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON); ourSong = MediaPlayer.create(MainActivity.this, R.raw.audirs6); SharedPreferences getPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext()); boolean music = getPrefs.getBoolean("checkbox", true); if (music == true) ourSong.start(); mTitle = mDrawerTitle = getTitle(); // load slide menu items navMenuTitles = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.nav_drawer_items); // nav drawer icons from resources navMenuIcons = getResources().obtainTypedArray(R.array.nav_drawer_icons); mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout); mDrawerList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list_slidermenu);

I've placed onBackPressed method at the bottom of MainActivity to be able to go back within this webview using back button. Everything works as I would like whilst interacting inside the webview. All links open within the webview &amp; pressing back button takes me back to previous webview history as required. When there is no more history in webview &amp; back button is pressed, nothing happens which again is ideal as I don't want the app to be exited. This then requires the user to tap the app icon to open navigation drawer &amp; choose another item in the menu.</p> <p><strong>Here is where I'm stuck</strong>. When I choose another item (fragment) from navigation drawer, it gets displayed, but when I press back button the app closes with message 'Unfortunately, myapp has stopped. Am I missing some code or do I have to add onBackPressed code for each fragment? More importantly, I'm confused as to where the onBackPressed method should go. Should it only go in MainActivity or should it go in each FragmentActivity? As it stands the only onBackPressed method I have is in MainActivity for webview which works, but may still be wrong practice. What code do I need for other fragments that when back button is pressed, it doesn't close app with the above message I mentioned and where should it go?</p> <p>Any help is much appreciated!</p> <p>Here is Logcat:</p> <pre><code>12-17 22:34:03.957: D/AndroidRuntime(8477): Shutting down VM 12-17 22:34:03.957: W/dalvikvm(8477): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x41288930) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): java.lang.NullPointerException 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at com.loui.automartdirectcars.MainActivity.onBackPressed(MainActivity.java:273) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.app.Activity.onKeyUp(Activity.java:2145) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.view.KeyEvent.dispatch(KeyEvent.java:2633) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.app.Activity.dispatchKeyEvent(Activity.java:2375) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow$DecorView.dispatchKeyEvent(PhoneWindow.java:1865) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.view.ViewRootImpl.deliverKeyEventPostIme(ViewRootImpl.java:3701) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.view.ViewRootImpl.handleImeFinishedEvent(ViewRootImpl.java:3651) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.view.ViewRootImpl$ViewRootHandler.handleMessage(ViewRootImpl.java:2818) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5195) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:511) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:795) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:562) 12-17 22:34:03.987: E/AndroidRuntime(8477): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) </code></pre>
