I am using the below line to set my ImageView. 

    Bitmap bm = Media.getBitmap(getContentResolver(), capturedImage);
                    Bitmap bm1=Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bm, 300, 300,true);
                    pic.setImageBitmap(bm1);

But when I rotate my mobile, the imageView becomes blank. Can anyone help me. Any help is appreciated.

Try adding android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" to your Activity tag in your AndroidManifest. Take a look here for more details.

Proper way to it is to save the bitmap in onRetainNonConfigurationInstance()

Here is an example: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html

    This example uses deprecated methods (getLastNonConfigurationInstance). Try this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10831429/orientation-changes-in-android –  Jan 19 '13 at 23:27

You should save capturedImage in your onSaveInstanceState method, and then check in your onRestoreInstanceState method to see if you saved it and then re-execute the code you have above. See the answer of Saving Android Activity state using Save Instance State for an excellent example of how this would work.

  • I tried using this. But still if I rotate my mobile for two times the image becomes null. I get the same problem. It looks persistent only for first orientation change. Is there any other way that I could try. – Andro Selva May 25 '11 at 05:18
  • That really is the best way to do it: you may have an error in your implementation. If we post the code you are using in `onSaveInstanceState` and `onRestoreInstanceState` we might be able to point out the changes you need to make to fix the issue you're seeing. – Femi May 25 '11 at 05:21
  • @Lumis solution might be somewhat more efficient. – Femi May 25 '11 at 05:22
