Hi Damov,
Your activity will only be PAUSED if you use Dialog Theme for a
PreferenceActivity. For other Themes, it is PAUSED and STOPPED, but
not
destroyed or killed. So if you want to restore the state you can do it
in onResume... so no need to use Theme.Dialog in your case unless it
looks good
You should move the heavyweight lifting stuff to a Service if you
don't want it to be stopped.
Running background music is something that a background service should
take care of. Here's another thread response from Dianne-
+1 - I'm experiencing the same thing here. The PreferenceScreen is
drawn with the black theme. BTW, preferences with the dialog theme act
weird when scrolled (parts of the preferences are drawn on black
background black while scrolling) but I think I can fix that - someone
mentioned about
It gets even more weird if you have the landscape mode (i guess thats
what you are talking above)

I would stay away from the dialog theme for all but very simple things (like
alerts), since the border takes so much space away from your UI.
Of course
Hi Dianne,
Thanks for your response. I don't like Dialogs either. :)
still a bug...:-) ; even if rendering is not proper, I expect at least
the child PreferenceScreen to have the same Theme.

Chander
