Android Question Starter service list is empty after recreating activity

[somed3v3loper]

Hello

I fixed this issue before posting but as I promised to start a new thread and in case some one faces a similar issue .

How to produce issue :

Dim a list in Starter service and fill it with your data .

in Activity dim another list , initialize it and make it equal to service list like

activity_list = starter_list

In Activity_Create try to get an item from starter_list .

Now lock screen and you will get error like "java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Invalid index 0, size is 0" when trying to access a list inside Starter service after screen lock .

My fix is just to delete activity list and always use starter_list .
