I have this piece of code that's really prone to errors so I wrapped it with try{}catch statement. I don't want to go back to the previous activity, I just want it to stay on the current activity so that the user can edit whatever is wrong with them.

How do I implement this?

    try{
        orgi.insertOrThrow(tableName, null, values);
        Toast.makeText(this, "You have successfully created a new profile!", 2).show();
        gotoProfileList();
        Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(),"Successfully added to database");
    }catch(SQLiteException se){
        Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), "Database connection failed!" + se);

        //Stay in this activity...
    }finally{
        if (orgi != null){
            orgi.close();
        }
    }

Forget it, I was able to solve my own problem by showing up an alertDialog that tells the user about the error. Thanks anyways. :)

            try{
                orgi.insertOrThrow(tableName, null, values);
                Toast.makeText(this, "You have successfully created a new profile!", 2).show();
                gotoProfileList();
                Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(),"Successfully added to database");
            }catch(SQLiteException se){
                Log.e(getClass().getSimpleName(), "Database connection failed!" + se);
                displayError();
                //stayInThisActivity();
            }finally{
                if (orgi != null){
                    orgi.close();
                }   

public void displayError(){
            AlertDialog.Builder error = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
            error.setMessage("That profile name already exists, try another one.").setCancelable(false).setPositiveButton("Yes",new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

                @Override
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                    dialog.cancel();

                }
            });

            AlertDialog alert = error.create();
            alert.setTitle("Error");
            alert.show();
        }
