Why is onBackPressed invalid in Activity?
Posted Jul 13, 2024
When I created a new project and it ran normally, I added the onBackPressed method in the Activity and canceled super. onBackPressed() to make the return button unavailable. Everything was fine now
But when I added it in build.gradle
implementation("zendesk.messaging:messaging-android:2.20.1")
At this point, press the return button again and the program exits. Why is this?
Why does this only happen in Android 14？

Hello! We had a similar issue on my team, although we make a React Native app, where the Zendesk SDK is set up as native modules. We have a lot more going on under the hood with React Native navigation and stack management. However, I think the commonality is that the Zendesk Android SDK from version 2.19.0 onward appears to have a new back nav implementation that basically hijacks your app's back press events. Our team had to revert to `"zendesk.messaging:messaging-android:2.18.0"` in order to get our back press functionality working again.

If it helps, we've faced the same issue while working on this SDK bump and after some research, we found out that the problem is a change within the Zendesk SDK manifest file, enabling predictive back gesture (more info about it in https://developer.android.com/guide/navigation/custom-back/predictive-back-gesture).
This change forces any consumer project to use the new back gesture APIs, disabling the old “onbackpressed” from activity/dialogs.
In order to revert such behaviour change, you can add this within your project manifest file, at
applicationlevel:tools:replace="android:enableOnBackInvokedCallback"android:enableOnBackInvokedCallback="false"tools:targetApi="tiramisu"This should let you still use the old
onBackPressedAPI. We've already warned Zendesk support team about it, hopefully it will be fixed soon.1

Thank you very much. I tried to add the following code in application to solve my problem
tools:replace="android:enableOnBackInvokedCallback"android:enableOnBackInvokedCallback="false"tools:targetApi="tiramisu"0
