I am integrating paypal in my android app to allow users to pay online, i successfully got it work in sandbox mode, but in the production mode, i am facing a problem when the user successfully logs in, it doesn't return him back to my app , instead it shows him a page saying "continuing to 'my app'"

What I have tried:

I doubly checked the redirection URI.
I doubly checked the credentials .
I tried to move the redirectionactivity exists in the paypal-sdk manifest to the main manifest.
I made my main activity listen to the logging in process instead of the redirection activity of the paypal-sdk and it indeed works but the purchase process stops

We can't see your code, so we can't help.
The only people that can (and that you should trust with anything to do with Paypal and real money) is Paypal themselves - so contact their tech support and ask them. They only get paid their commision when you sell, so it's in their interest to get you up and selling as fast as possible.

Never, ever, accept code from a insecure website to handle anything to do with real money.
You do not know who is giving you the code, you do not know what it does, you do not know that it places the monies correctly into the appropriate account, without passing the details to any third parties.

Only get such code from reputable card transaction service companies - the scope for fraud otherwise is far too large. And remember, you personally could be liable for any monies lost if your action is seen to be negligent - which getting your code from a public forum would most certainly be!
