draft messages are lost if orientation changes

[pravi]

When posting a new mesage in portrait, if orientation changes, message being typed is lost and stream is shown. Its very irritating to type again.

Even regular stream gets reloaded when orientation changes.

General information

• Device: Yu Yuphoroa
• Android Version: Cyanogen Mod 12.1
• Pod: poddery.com
• Diaspora pod version: 0.6.0.0
• App source: F-Droid
• App version: 0.1.5

Steps to reproduce

1. …create a new post
2. …type something
3. …change orientation

What is the expected output?

You should not lose the message you typed.

Stream is loaded instead.

Can't reproduce that one. Make sure you do NOT have something like "Don't keep activities" checked in the developer options.

@vanitasvitae I don't have that option checked, though I could not reproduce it on HTC Desire 816G with Android 4.4.2. What version of Android do you have?

@pravi: I'm running a Nexus 5 with CopperheadOS (Android 6). Thr issue could be caused by limited RAM I guess?

@vanitasvitae browser does orientation switching without any issues, so I doubt it is RAM. It has 2GB RAM.

Good if it does, but it shouln't save the content. Usually an orientation change let your android re-render the layout. (onCreate called ;). Btw: Text also stays on my device.

Bundle savedInstanceState may be a good hint, if someone goes onto this.

[vanitasvitae]

But isn't the content saved in onPause or onSaveWebViewState or something like that?

@pravi Could you try this experimental apk? I made some experimental changes and the apk is signed with my key, so you have to reinstall the app. Also the download might be a little slow. I hope this might change your problem and also make the app a little faster ;)

[vanitasvitae]

I merged the changes that I made in the experimental branch into the master branch. Please reopen, if the problem still occurs.
