Fwiw, there is definitely no clearing of instance variables when onNewIntent() is called. I can't imagine how the framework would even clear instance variables, except for using reflection to find them and poke them, which we definitely don't do.
For these situations it may be useful to look at the event log (adb logcat -b events) to see what the system is doing, and also possibly the activity manager state (adb shell dumpsys activity) to see the state the system has your activities in.
