There is a way to wait for another thread to finish:
http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/reference/java/lang/Thread.html#join%28%29

If that thread took a while, however, the system might decide your app
isn't responding.

Passing the recreated activity a reference to the thread using this
method might be worth looking into instead:
