this code will return All packages that have been loaded into the process .

see the results after lauching related apps and make changes .

    private String[] AppForground() {

            ActivityManager mActivityManager = (ActivityManager) getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
            List<RunningAppProcessInfo> l = mActivityManager
                    .getRunningAppProcesses();
            Iterator<RunningAppProcessInfo> i = l.iterator();
            while (i.hasNext()) {
                RunningAppProcessInfo info = i.next();
                if (info.importance == RunningAppProcessInfo.IMPORTANCE_FOREGROUND) {
                    return info.pkgList;
                }

you can achieve this scenario using following steps. This is my view for solution.

make setter()/getter() method for activity name.
whenever you change your activity set that activity's name using set method.
now using getter() method you can see which is currently running activity.
