I switch the buffer in first frame to buffer A. When I try to switch the buffer in the second frame to buffer A, Emacs brings the first frame forward. Doesn't happen to me. What is your version of Emacs, and does this happen in "emacs -Q"? If "emacs -Q" behaves like you expect, then you already have some customization that results in this behavior, and you need to find which customization is that. Perhaps you customized display-buffer-reuse-frames, for example.
