Pretty self-explanatory. It would be a good idea to allow the
developer to add a Timeout variable to the intent which causes zxing
to return cancelled if the scan was not successful in that amount of
time.

Do you have an app which needs this, or is it a "wouldn't it be cool if" request?

Hey, sorry for not replying earlier. The solution given by Lachezar works great. Thanks. Still new to Android, so I wasn't aware that activities can still make calls after calling another activity, although now that I think of it,it's pretty obvious it should be.
I needed it for an app, and it's fine now, although it still "would be cool if".

Apologies!
It seems I've sent the 'solution' off-list.
// You may choose a better uniqueness
final int requestCode;
requestCode = 0xBA7C0DE + (int) System.currentTimeMillis() % 1000;
final Intent intent;
intent = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN");
// Start child activity
startActivityForResult(intent, requestCode);
// 3 seconds delay before forcibly finishing activity.
// onActivityResult() WILL be called.
new Handler(new Callback() {
@Override
public boolean handleMessage(Message msg) {
finishActivity(requestCode);
return false;
}
}).sendEmptyMessageDelayed(0, 3000);
