Re: [android-developers] New activity when I lock my screen

add orientation to the configChanges attributes of your activity and handle the rotation layout changes yourself.

Thank you a lot Nobu and Kostya you helped me a lot.

Kostya is right! This is what is happening! Thank you for understaing me, my english is not so good :-(

Now, how can I tell the code to do not re-create on orientation change when you lock the screen?

The code should handle it without crashing, but it would not be playable (a game design decision), so if it change orientation when the screen is locked is not a problem. But it should go back in landscape when you unlock your phone.

Thank you a lot.

Are you locking the device in landscape mode?

On phones, locking the screen represents an orientation change, a locked screen is always in portrait mode.

This means that if your activity is the top-most one on the screen, it will be destroyed and re-created, and then again when you unlock the device.

Can your code handle an orientation change without crashing?

Hello, I'm developing an android app for some time now. Everything is going well. When I close my app with the home button and I reopen it there aren't any problems or crashes.

But, when I have my app open and I lock my screen the app create a new istance of the activity and call again onCreate when the screen is locked... so crash!

the code of my activity is here

http://pastebin.com/j1mTRUnB

What can this be? Any suggestion? Thank you a lot =)
