copied!<p><strong>FINALLY FOUND THE ERROR AND THE PROPER SOLUTION !!</strong></p> <p>Actually, The problem occurred only when people first launched the App from a screen on land mode... The App is forced to be portrait in the Manifest, but, nevertheless, I realised that Android still executes the onConfigurationChanged at launch (when passing from Land to Portrait, e.g)</p> <p>The problem is that the App is in 2 languages and to keep the right language on screen orientation I had increment my own Myapplication (to extend Application) to manage onConfigurationChanged and set the correct Locale default throughout the App!! </p> <p>Even after forcing the App to Portrait in the Manifest (for some reasons some time ago), the onConfigurationChanged from MyApplication.java was still executed in some circomstances...</p> <p><strong>THE PROBLEM</strong> :</p> <p>The code in the MyApplication.java was </p> <pre><code>public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) { super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig); // Set correct language (default or chosen) Locale locale = new Locale(getState()); Locale.setDefault(locale); newConfig.locale = locale; getBaseContext().getResources().updateConfiguration(newConfig, getBaseContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics()); } </code></pre> <p><strong>THE SOLUTION</strong>:</p> <p>Do not use directly newConfig, but make a Modifiable Configuration object, instead, as adviced by Android Developper, and work with it</p> <pre><code>public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) { super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig); // Set correct language (default or chosen) Locale locale = new Locale(getState()); Locale.setDefault(locale); Configuration config = new Configuration(newConfig); // get Modifiable Config from actual config changed config.locale = locale; getBaseContext().getResources().updateConfiguration(config, getBaseContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics()); } </code></pre> <p>The former solution to load directly the newConfog objest was working until Android v2.3 but was not accepted any more in the Android Version >= 4.0</p> <p>EVERYTHING IS OK NOW !!</p> <p>(Special Thanks to Frédéric Espiau alias <a href="http://www.siteduzero.com/membres-294-15848.html" rel="noreferrer">Apollidore</a>, as the solution came reading his excellent book "Créez des applications pour Android")</p>
