Hi John, any time a device configuration change during runtime
(orientation in this case) Android automatically kills the
Activity( calls onDestroy() ) and start it again (call onCreate() ) so
the changes are applied (read more about this behavior here
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html
).
Bellow I explain a way to override this, there are other way to do it,
this is the most simpler, let me know if it fit your requirements:
Inside the Activity override this method:
@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
//Put everything you want to change here
}
Inside the AndroidManisfest put this attribute in your Activity tag:
<activity ... android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" ... >
