考虑使用onUserLeaveHint。它只会在应用进入后台时被调用。onPause会有一些极端情况需要处理，因为它可以被用于其他原因;例如，如果用户在你的应用程序中打开另一个活动，比如你的设置页面，你的主活动的onPause方法将被调用，即使它们仍然在你的应用程序中;当你可以简单地使用onUserLeaveHint回调函数来做你所要求的事情时，跟踪正在进行的事情将导致错误。

当调用on UserLeaveHint时，你可以设置一个boolean inBackground标志为true。当onResume被调用时，如果inBackground标志被设置，只假设你回到前台。这是因为onResume也将被调用在你的主要活动，如果用户只是在你的设置菜单，从来没有离开应用程序。

Remember that if the user hits the home button while in your settings screen, onUserLeaveHint will be called in your settings activity, and when they return onResume will be called in your settings activity. If you only have this detection code in your main activity you will miss this use case. To have this code in all your activities without duplicating code, have an abstract activity class which extends Activity, and put your common code in it. Then each activity you have can extend this abstract activity.

例如:

public abstract AbstractActivity extends Activity {
    private static boolean inBackground = false;

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        if (inBackground) {
            // You just came from the background
            inBackground = false;
        }
        else {
            // You just returned from another activity within your own app
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onUserLeaveHint() {
        inBackground = true;
    }
}

public abstract MainActivity extends AbstractActivity {
    ...
}

public abstract SettingsActivity extends AbstractActivity {
    ...
}

在你的应用程序中添加回调并检查根活动，如下所示:

@Override
public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();
    registerActivityLifecycleCallbacks(new ActivityLifecycleCallbacks() {
        @Override
        public void onActivityStopped(Activity activity) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onActivityStarted(Activity activity) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onActivitySaveInstanceState(Activity activity, Bundle outState) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onActivityResumed(Activity activity) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onActivityPaused(Activity activity) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onActivityDestroyed(Activity activity) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onActivityCreated(Activity activity, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            if (activity.isTaskRoot() && !(activity instanceof YourSplashScreenActivity)) {
                Log.e(YourApp.TAG, "Reload defaults on restoring from background.");
                loadDefaults();
            }
        }
    });
}

我知道有点晚了，但我认为所有这些答案都有一些问题，而我这样做了，这是完美的。

创建一个活动生命周期回调，如下所示:

 class ActivityLifeCycle implements ActivityLifecycleCallbacks{

    @Override
    public void onActivityCreated(Activity activity, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityStarted(Activity activity) {

    }

    Activity lastActivity;
    @Override
    public void onActivityResumed(Activity activity) {
        //if (null == lastActivity || (activity != null && activity == lastActivity)) //use this condition instead if you want to be informed also when  app has been killed or started for the first time
        if (activity != null && activity == lastActivity) 
        {
            Toast.makeText(MyApp.this, "NOW!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }

        lastActivity = activity;
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityPaused(Activity activity) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityStopped(Activity activity) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onActivitySaveInstanceState(Activity activity, Bundle outState) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityDestroyed(Activity activity) {

    }
}

然后像下面这样在你的应用类上注册它:

public class MyApp extends Application {

@Override
public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();
    registerActivityLifecycleCallbacks(new ActivityLifeCycle());
}

通过使用下面的代码，我能够得到我的应用程序的前台或后台状态。

更多关于它的工作细节，强文本点击这里

import android.content.ComponentCallbacks2;
import android.content.Context;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private Context context;
private Toast toast;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    context = this;
}

private void showToast(String message) {
    //If toast is already showing cancel it
    if (toast != null) {
        toast.cancel();
    }

    toast = Toast.makeText(context, message, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
    toast.show();
}

@Override
protected void onStart() {
    super.onStart();
    showToast("App In Foreground");
}

@Override
public void onTrimMemory(int level) {
    super.onTrimMemory(level);
    if (level == ComponentCallbacks2.TRIM_MEMORY_UI_HIDDEN) {
        showToast("App In Background");
    }
  }
}

我所做的是确保所有应用程序内的活动启动startActivityForResult，然后检查onActivityResult是否在onResume之前被调用。如果不是，这意味着我们刚刚从应用程序之外的某个地方返回。

boolean onActivityResultCalledBeforeOnResume;

@Override
public void startActivity(Intent intent) {
    startActivityForResult(intent, 0);
}

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
    onActivityResultCalledBeforeOnResume = true;
}

@Override
protected void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    if (!onActivityResultCalledBeforeOnResume) {
        // here, app was brought to foreground
    }
    onActivityResultCalledBeforeOnResume = false;
}

下面是我解决这个问题的方法。它的工作前提是，在活动转换之间使用时间参考最有可能提供足够的证据来证明应用程序是否“背景化”。

首先，我使用了一个android.app.Application实例(让我们称它为MyApplication)，它有一个Timer，一个TimerTask，一个常量来表示从一个活动过渡到另一个活动可以合理地花费的最大毫秒数(我用了一个2s的值)，一个布尔值来指示应用程序是否“在后台”:

public class MyApplication extends Application {

    private Timer mActivityTransitionTimer;
    private TimerTask mActivityTransitionTimerTask;
    public boolean wasInBackground;
    private final long MAX_ACTIVITY_TRANSITION_TIME_MS = 2000;
    ...

应用程序还提供了两种方法来启动和停止定时器/任务:

public void startActivityTransitionTimer() {
    this.mActivityTransitionTimer = new Timer();
    this.mActivityTransitionTimerTask = new TimerTask() {
        public void run() {
            MyApplication.this.wasInBackground = true;
        }
    };

    this.mActivityTransitionTimer.schedule(mActivityTransitionTimerTask,
                                           MAX_ACTIVITY_TRANSITION_TIME_MS);
}

public void stopActivityTransitionTimer() {
    if (this.mActivityTransitionTimerTask != null) {
        this.mActivityTransitionTimerTask.cancel();
    }

    if (this.mActivityTransitionTimer != null) {
        this.mActivityTransitionTimer.cancel();
    }

    this.wasInBackground = false;
}

这个解决方案的最后一部分是从所有活动的onResume()和onPause()事件中添加对这些方法的调用，或者，最好是在所有具体活动继承的基础活动中:

@Override
public void onResume()
{
    super.onResume();

    MyApplication myApp = (MyApplication)this.getApplication();
    if (myApp.wasInBackground)
    {
        //Do specific came-here-from-background code
    }

    myApp.stopActivityTransitionTimer();
}

@Override
public void onPause()
{
    super.onPause();
    ((MyApplication)this.getApplication()).startActivityTransitionTimer();
}

所以在这种情况下，当用户只是在你的应用程序的活动之间导航，离开活动的onPause()启动定时器，但几乎立即进入的新活动取消定时器之前，它可以达到最大过渡时间。wasInBackground也是假的。

另一方面，当一个Activity从启动器来到前台，设备被唤醒，结束电话呼叫等，更有可能是定时器任务在此事件之前执行，因此wasInBackground被设置为true。
