In order to retaining data during orientation change, save data by overriding onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() method, it will be called by the system, as part of destroying an activity due to a configuration change. Then call getLastNonConfigurationInstance() to recover your data, when your activity is created again.
Please notice that onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() and getLastNonConfigurationInstance() were deprecated in API level 13 (Use the new Fragment API setRetainInstance(boolean) instead; this is also available on older platforms through the Android compatibility package). ~ in next exercise
Modify MainActivity.java from last exercise. In order to make it easy to monitor the status, I insert some delay in the code with Thread.sleep().
