How to press back button in android programmatically?

onBackPressed() is supported since: API Level 5

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK)) {
        onBackPressed();
    }
}

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
    //this is only needed if you have specific things
    //that you want to do when the user presses the back button.
    /* your specific things...*/
    super.onBackPressed();   
}
