Normally the activity is destroyed and recreated when Android detects rotation, unless you specify that you want your activity to handle events like turning the phone on its side or the keyboard opening.
It's documented here: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/res/Configuration.html You can read more about rotation here: http://androidguys.com/?tag=android-rotation and http://www.devx.com/wireless/Article/40792/1763/page/5 Some tutorials you may come across may be obsolete on one point: there used to be only the flag keyboardhidden, but Android recently added hardKeyboardHidden, to handle the case of soft keyboards. onSaveInstanceState() and onDestroy() should be called before your activity is killed and revived, I'm not sure why you don't see it.
