I think you are reading the description of onSaveInstanceState() incorrectly, if you think it is not called when you need it to be called. From the documentation on Activity:
"In addition, the method onSaveInstanceState(Bundle) is called before placing the activity in such a background state, allowing you to save away any dynamic instance state in your activity into the given Bundle, to be later received in onCreate(Bundle) if the activity needs to be re-created." that seems to be what you want, and that sentence is very clear: "is called".
