Question

 ArrayList> 

in an Bunble object so that i can retrieve t

Answer 1

first you must have a static holder:

private static class Holder{
        private ListimageList = new ArrayList();
    }

second, when orientation start, you must return the object you want to retrieve after the orientation:

@Override
    public Object onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() {
        return holder;
    }

at last, when you create the 'new' activity must call getLastNonConfigurationInstance(). ANdroid will return your holder with your List.

@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
                holder = (Holder) getLastNonConfigurationInstance();
}

you can find a more extensive explanation here: Faster Screen Orientation.
