如何在没有onConfigChanged的情况下处理android中的屏幕方向更改

Question

I am new to android coding, So i'm sure there must be some stupid mistake in my code. I am trying to make a TO DO LIST app (without using Listview) and I don't know how to handle orientation change in Android. When i rotate the device all my data is lost. If you can suggest how I can go about it, I would be really grateful.

Here is my source code:

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

LinearLayout mlistlayout;
String toDo;
private ArrayList<Entry> mlist;

static class Entry {
    String S;
    boolean b;
    public Entry(String S, boolean b) {
    }
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    mlistlayout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.list);
    mlist = (ArrayList<Entry>) getLastCustomNonConfigurationInstance();
    if (mlist == null) {
        mlist = new ArrayList<>();
    }

    Button sub = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonsubmit);
    sub.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            EditText editText1 = (EditText)        `
            findViewById(R.id.editText1);
            toDo = editText1.getText().toString().trim();
            if (toDo.isEmpty()) {
                return;
            }
            editText1.setText("");
            AddListEntry(toDo);
        }
    });
}
@Override
public Object onRetainCustomNonConfigurationInstance() {
    return mlist;
}

void AddListEntry(String S) {
    LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(this);
    View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row, mlistlayout, false);
    final Entry entry = new Entry(S, false);
    TextView t = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.task_title);
    t.setText(toDo);
    CheckBox cb=(CheckBox) v.findViewById(R.id.task_delete);
    cb.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new  CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
         @Override
        public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
             entry.b=isChecked;
           }
        });
    mlist.add(entry);
    mlistlayout.addView(v);
}

}

Save the state of the activity you would like to reuse later in savedInstanceState. And then you check if the savedInstanceState == null in onCreate. If it is null then you create the activity if not you get the state. This will show you how to do it with examples.
