Home Page + Side Menu Navigation

Hi All,
I have application with the following
Home Page
News
Events
Contact Us
Inbox
Settings

So I have the home page with the buttons (News,events,contact us …)
and in each page I have a side menu with the same menu
The problem I have is when I navigate from the home page to the other pages, I dont see the back button and when I click it, the application closes, I have this for the route

.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
  $stateProvider

  .state('home', {
    url: "/home",
    cache: false,
    controller: 'AppCtrl',
    templateUrl: "templates/home.html",
  })
    .state('app', {
      url: "/app",
      abstract: true,
      templateUrl: "templates/menu.html",
      controller: 'AppCtrl'
    })
    .state('app.news', {
      url: "/news",
      cache: false,
      views: {
        'menuContent': {
          templateUrl: "templates/news.html",
          controller: 'NewsCtrl'
        }
      }
    })

   .state('app.events', {
    url: "/events",
    cache: false,
    views: {
      'menuContent': {
        templateUrl: "templates/events.html",
        controller: 'EventsCtrl'
      }
    }
  })

I only have problem when navigating from the home to the other pages, I used the sidemenu starter template, and I added a home page

  <ion-nav-bar class="bar-calm">
  </ion-nav-bar>
   <ion-header-bar class="bar-calm">
      <h1 class="title"><img class="logo" src="img/logo.png"/></h1>
    </ion-header-bar>
<ion-view view-title="{{'main_title'|translate}}" class="calm">
  <ion-content>
     <ion-list class="{{'language' | translate}}">
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/news">
           <i class='f-big f-shadow ion-earth'></i>&nbsp;{{'news' | translate}}
          <span ng-if="counts.news_count>0" class="{{'op_direction' | translate}} badge badge-stable">{{counts.news_count}}</span>
          </ion-item>
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/events">
          <i class='f-big f-shadow ion-edit'></i>&nbsp;{{'events' | translate}}
         <span ng-if="counts.events_count>0" class="{{'op_direction' | translate}} badge badge-stable">{{counts.events_count}}</span>
        </ion-item>
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/notifications">
          <i class='f-big f-shadow ion-email'></i>&nbsp;{{'notifications' | translate}}
          <span ng-if="counts.notifications_count>0" class="{{'op_direction' | translate}} badge badge-stable">{{counts.notifications_count}}</span>
        </ion-item>
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/login">
           <i class='f-big f-shadow ion-ios-telephone'></i>&nbsp;{{'contact' | translate}}
        </ion-item>
        <ion-item nav-clear menu-close href="#/app/settings">
           <i class='f-big f-shadow ion-toggle'></i>&nbsp;{{'settings' | translate}}
        </ion-item>
      </ion-list>
  </ion-content>
</ion-view>
