Logout navigates to Previous Activity

Question

I am using LogOut menuitem in navigation drawer.The flow of an app is as follows,

SplashScreen
LogInActivity
ShopList Fragment (Inside of Activity3)
MainActivity (Here I am having LogOut menu item in Navigation Drawer).

If I press LogOut,I have written code to navigate LogInActivity.

But it moves to LogOut-->LogInActivity-->ShopList-->LogInActivity

LogOut Code is as follows,

if(id == R.id.nav_logout) {

            commonUtil.dbUtil.open();
            commonUtil.dbUtil.LogOut();
            Intent moveToMain = new Intent(context, LogInActivity.class);
            moveToMain.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
            moveToMain.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
            moveToMain.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
            startActivity(moveToMain);
            MainActivity.this.finish();

        }

Worked fine: (After changed setFlags to addFlags)

if (id == R.id.nav_logout) {

            commonUtil.dbUtil.open();
            commonUtil.dbUtil.LogOut();
            Intent moveToMain = new Intent(context, LogInActivity.class);
            moveToMain.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
            moveToMain.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
            moveToMain.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
            startActivity(moveToMain);
            MainActivity.this.finish();

        }

This will clear all previous activities in the stack

Intent moveToMain = new Intent(context, LogInActivity.class);
moveToMain.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(moveToMain);

Try this,

Intent moveToMain = new Intent(context, LogInActivity.class);
moveToMain .setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK |  Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
startActivity(moveToMain);
