My OpenGL stuff seems to draw just fine until some rotate (this is most reproducible if you rotate back and forth with about a second between).
Note that Activity B is "singleTop" Here's a log from the normal startup: I/System.out(17209): Activity A:onCreate() I/System.out(17209): Start Activity B from Activity A I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onCreate() I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onResume() When I rotate and things are fine: I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onPause() I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onDestroy() I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onCreate() I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onResume() I/System.out(17209): Activity A:onCreate() I/System.out(17209): Start Activity B from Activity A I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onPause() I/System.out(17209): Activity B:onResume() So it's actually restoring B before re-creating activity A... But then A resumes B... I think it's doing B-then-A because A is shown through the translucent activity B? For normal cases this works fine... I was able to reproduce the issue by rotating back and forth repeatedly... I sort of had to do it while the screen stayed grey, so I'm not sure exactly when the problem started, but I'm seeing something useful from the log: I/System.out(17910): Start Activity B from Activity A I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onPause() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onResume() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onPause() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onDestroy() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onCreate() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onResume() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onPause() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onDestroy() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onCreate() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onResume() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onPause() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onDestroy() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onCreate() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onResume() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onPause() I/System.out(17910): Activity B:onDestroy() It looks like when you rotate that fast, Android doesn't even get to tell anything to Activity A! Somehow it got lost, and after that, I see continuing messsages of: W/SurfaceComposerClient(17910): lock_layer timed out (is the CPU pegged?) layer=2, lcblk=0x420d0120, state=0000000e (was 0000000e) Is there any way around this? Am I being to mean with my rotations?
