I am familiar with the activity lifecycle. To make myself clear. I am finding the behavior strange in this case.
1. Running the app then bringing it to the background by pressing home and then pushing the lock button does not destroy my activity. 2. Running the app then pushing the lock button destroys my activity and then instantly creates it again. Doing (1) i can get the app to run in the background while device is locked without it being destroyed, but doing (2) I cannot. Seems strange to destroy the activity and then instantly create it again. Doing (2) with Angry Birds does not destroy the activity, it leaves it as it is. Because when you go back to the game it runs instantly, no texture loading or anything. The music is not running in a service. And the music does stop when going to the background via the home button (1), so that's why I was thinking it had something to do with that. Anyway, thank you for any hints.
