Mobile app crashes on orientation change

[Paul_Ramcharitar]

I have been working on a mobile application for Android. I used the android template provided by profound ui and everything was working well on android 3.0.

I recently updated to android 4.0.3. Now when I launch the app, it runs, but as soon as I rotate the device it crashes.

After much searching, I found a solution to this problem.
I needed to add "screenSize" to android:configChanges in each Activity tag within the AnroidManifest.xml. So it would be like this: android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden"

The reason behind this is explained in this post: http://groups.google.com/group/phonegap ... fc4dd9daaf

Thanks Paul!

I added this change to the Android Manifest file included in the template project, to prevent future users from experiencing this problem.
