when pressing the home button, the app is meant to go into background. this works fine for me on samsung galaxy tablet. here are the lifecycle methods called in order:
onPause() - when home button is pressed
onStop()
onStart() - when app is restarted
onResume()
--------------------------------------
on the kindle fire, I get a blank screen. I also notice a difference in the lifecycle methods called:
onPause() - when home button is pressed
onStop()
*** HERE IS THE DIFFERENCE ****
onCreate() - when app is reentered
onStart()
onResume()
------
there is an on create call , without a matching on destroy call.
Ive googled the forums for a few days. I've found similar issues but unsatisfactory solutions, such as calling finish() from onPause().
I've also posted this on kindle fire development forum, but wanted a wider audience in case this isn't a kindle-specific issue after all.
many thanks for any feedback.
