Handling Configuration Changes -

Problem-

When device configurations changes during runtime (such as screen orientation, keyboard availability, and language) then Android restarts the running Activity (onDestroy() is called, followed by onCreate()).

My solution handle below case – I cannot fix the orientation as done below, user must be able to use application in both the mode landscape and portrait. <activity android:screenOrientation="portrait" ... /> Before proceeding to tutorial make sure than device screen rotation is on from settings. Lets handle such scenario and see the impact in both the cases-
