I hope that this is what you want. No, don't. That doesn't fix the problem, just hides it in some of the common situations. (This also breaks many behaviors around configuration, such as selecting the right value for any resource that varies based on one of these configurations.) The correct solution is to write your activity correctly so that it does the right thing when it is re-created from a previous saved state. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.

[android-developers] Re: onCreate and orientation change
Hi, You could consider moving part of the logic of your application to a service. That would mean that the logic is separated from the UI, and thus will not be affected by UI changes.

The problem I'm having is that it is also doing it everytime I change the orientation of the screen. I've read some comments on onConfigurationChanged() but is there a better way to be sure I'm checking the GPS only when the activity is first created?
