	I'm confused with this fact, and I think some feature must require getActionBar() and this function requires a min SDK of 11, but how can Google make those features possible? I wonder Google may use ActionBarSherlock, is this just the reason? But there is no mention of using it, but how can Google do this? Thanks for your answering. asked Jun 14 at 11:43

	Google is actually working on ActionBarCompat . It's basically a ActionBarSherlock from Google. I suppose they are testing this in some apps already since they said at Google I/O that it is in an advanced state of development. I think they will release this in the next few months. answered Jun 14 at 11:53

but how can Google make those features possible? They made their own action bar, presumably. I wonder Google may use ActionBarSherlock, is this just the reason? You are welcome to get a job with Google, attempt to join the Google Shopper team, and ask them. And have anyone ever use ActionBarSherlock on Android 2.2, plz tell me if it can make things just as well as ActionBar? ActionBarSherlock definitely supports Android 2.2. answered Jun 14 at 11:46

Listview not showing on orientation Change [android help]

Listview not showing on orientation Change

I have previously done a listview and the list is being displayed whether in landscape or portrait orientation. However, in my new app, when I decide to change orientation, whether landscape to portrait or vice versa, it does not load again. I am trying to populate the listview with items from sqlite database. Here is my code:

Attractions.java

public class Attractions extends ListActivity {
DataBaseHandler db = new DataBaseHandler(this);
ArrayList imageArry = new ArrayList();
ContactImageAdapter adapter;
int ctr, loaded; 
int [] landmarkImages={R.drawable.oblation,R.drawable.eastwood,R.drawable.ecopark,R.drawable.circle};
String []landmarkDetails = { "Oblation", "Eastwood", "Ecopark", "QC Circle"};

/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_attractions);
    ctr  = db.checkContact(landmarkDetails[loaded]);
    db.deleteAll();


    // get image from drawable

    /**
     * CRUD Operations
     * */
    // Inserting Contacts
    Log.d("Insert: ", "Inserting ..");


    for(loaded=0; loaded 
        Bitmap image = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),
                landmarkImages[loaded]);

        // convert bitmap to byte
        ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        image.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, stream);
        byte imageInByte[] = stream.toByteArray();
        Log.d("Going to load images", "Image "+ loaded);

        Log.d("Goind to load objects", "loading");

        if(ctr == 0){
            Log.d("Nothing Loaded", "Loading Now");
            db.addContact(new Contact(landmarkDetails[loaded], imageInByte));}
            Log.d(landmarkDetails[loaded], "Loaded!");
            image.recycle();
    }


    // Reading all contacts from database
    List contacts = db.getAllContacts();
    for (Contact cn : contacts) {
        String log = "ID:" + cn.getID() + " Name: " + cn.getName()
                + " ,Image: " + cn.getImage();

        // Writing Contacts to log
        Log.d("Result: ", log);
        //add contacts data in arrayList
        imageArry.add(cn);

    }
    adapter = new ContactImageAdapter(this, R.layout.screen_list,
            imageArry);
    ListView dataList = (ListView) findViewById(android.R.id.list);
    dataList.setAdapter(adapter);
}

UPDATE

I ran the app on portrait mode: list present, when switched to landscape: does not display anything. I switch to portrait again: list present again.
