I have an android application which starts a new activity

Intent startAuthorization = new Intent(AndroidActivity, AuthorizeUser.class);       
startActivityForResult(startAuthorization,4711);

When that new activity is done (a ok button is clicked) I call

setResult(RESULT_OK, returnResult);
finish();

Which works fine. In case the user doesn't click the okay button but uses the return button of the phone (this arrow pointing around to the left) the application has a force close. I have set a breakpoint on the first line of my method onActivityResult but the debugger never stops there. I have no idea where the issue comes up - how can I find out? Is there a method I have to overwrite to handle this back button?
