You mentioned "crash" in your first post. So the screen is just black. That's weird because if the activity is really re-created from scratch then you should get the exact same result as in first start of your app.
I think you should make yourself familiar with the activity life cycle. The Android OS can finish your activities and kill your app any time it wants to. There are multiple reasons for that to happen, not only when the screen is locked. But by looking at your activity code I cannot see any problems there. I guess it's related to your "GameView" component. If your GameView does all the heavy lifting like loading graphics, maintaining game state, and perhaps creating OpenGL ES textures you need to notify it about the activity life cycle events onResume and onPause. If you're developing an OpenGL ES game you need to be aware that pausing the activity basically discards all OpenGL textures you may have created. That might be the real reason why your screen is black, not a restarted activity. On Wednesday, January 30, 2013 10:14:59 AM UTC-6, Davide Moriello wrote: > > No errors.
