Is there a way to keep the Service running while rotating?
Don't unbind in the old activity instance -- only unbind from the new one. This will require you to bind using the Application object instead of some other Context. See: http://commonsware.com/blog/2010/09/29/another-use-getapplicationcontext-binding-rotation.html https://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_frm/thread/35be7c74e43c5dfc/28658862573cb654 A retained fragment, instead of onRetainNonConfigurationInstance(), would be a variation on this pattern. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training...At Your Office: http://commonsware.com/training -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
