Hi all,

I have problem with my android app. Actually the problem is lets say i have a Activity with some textBoxes and i have entered some values in to them. Now i pressed home button on android emulator keypad. Now i ll be on the home page. And when i reopen my application it is getting started freshly ( from onCreate() method). How can i see the values which were entered before pressing home button. Is there any way to restore those values?

Thank You
Yashwanth

hi,
I have tried this but when i reopen the application it is starting as fresh. Am calling onSaveInstanceState() and onRestoreInstanceState() in addition to onCreate() method.. Do i need to add(Override) something else..Please clarify.

Thank you

You need to override onSaveInstanceState not call it and the same goes for onRestoreInstanceState.

onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState
@ Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState (Bundle outState) {
outState.putString ("lastPath", "/ sdcard/android/ccopy/test");
}

@ Override
public void onRestoreInstanceState (Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onRestoreInstanceState (savedInstanceState);

String cwjString = savedInstanceState.getString ("lastPath");
}
