How can I control the back button event in jQuery Mobile?

You need to listen to the navigation event and state.direction.

$(window).on("navigate", function (event, data) {
  var direction = data.state.direction;
  if (direction == 'back') {
    // Do something
  }
  if (direction == 'forward') {
    // Do something else
  }
});

jQuery Mobile API: Navigation event
