title: Prevent dialog dismissal on screen rotation in Android
body: <p>I am trying to prevent dialogs built with Alert builder from being dismissed when the Activity is restarted.</p>
  
  <p>If I overload the onConfigurationChanged method I can successfully do this and reset the layout to correct orientation but I lose sticky text feature of edittext. So in solving the dialog problem I have created this edittext problem.  </p>
  
  <p>If I save the strings from the edittext and reassign them in the onCofiguration change they still seem to default to initial value not what was entered before rotation. Even if I force an invalidate does seem to update them.</p>
  
  <p>I really need to solve either the dialog problem or the edittext problem.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for the help.</p>
