I do NOT save and restore state in this Activity. If I enter text in the EditText and check some boxes, then rotate my phone, all data is restored, as expected. This is on Nexus One 2.3.4, G1 with 1.6 and just ran it on a 1.5 AVD for shits and giggles. All work as expected. It would be a sad state of affairs indeed if every developer had to manually save and restore every single piece of static UI data in every Activity in this fashion. Try getting rid of one of your save / restore combos and see what happens. > Secondly, since I had suffered from the same problem as Suresh and the > only answer he was receiving was advising him to RTFM I thought that I > would try to help. > I was not faulting you for trying to help, if that's what you took from my post.
