Android BackButton Always Navigates Back

[jmichas]

In Xam Forms I could prevent the back button on a per page basis by simply overriding the OnBackButtonPressed() method in a page's code behind.

It seems that this no longer works with MAUI Prism. My page gets navigated back and I assume it is because the PrismAppBuilder sets the lifecycle event for OnBackPressed and the back button always causes the navigation.GoBackAsync() line.

Is there a way to override this and prevent any navigation?

I can't implement my own version of the lifecycle event because the PrismWindow is internal.

And if I'm wrong in my assumption could you point me to where/how the page is navigating back?

Thanks.

I think maybe #2815 related to this discussion.
