Develop Reference

Calling onSaveInstanceState on Activity

I inherited a project, trying to understand and solve an old bug.
When I start an activity and let it sit for a bit (sometimes it's almost immediate), but it appears to go into a pause state or something and attempts to reload the activity and gets an error.
"Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'java.lang.String ... ' on a null object reference"
I found that when I add this to my activity:
#Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
//super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
}
It appears to work perfectly.
However, when I uncomment the line above to super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);, I get the error again.
My activity is extending the ActionBarActivity, if that is helpful.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
Related Code:
#Override
protected void prepareLayout() {
textMessage = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textMessage);
textNotes = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.textNotes);
textMessage.setText(getOneOfMyItems().getText());
// ... the above line is where the problem error is thrown.
}

The root cause of your crash is this bit:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.res.Resources$Theme android.content.Context.getTheme()' on a null object reference
at android.app.AlertDialog.resolveDialogTheme(AlertDialog.java:224)
at android.app.AlertDialog$Builder.<init>(AlertDialog.java:454)
at com.example.vaidish.myapplication.Background.<init>(Background.java:25)
This says that you're passing null to the AlertDialog.Builder constructor. You could be doing that explicitly, like:
new AlertDialog.Builder(null)
or you could be doing it unintentionally, like:
new AlertDialog.Builder(mContext)
Check line 25 of your Background class, and make sure you're passing a non-null Context instance to the builder.

Before you use a reference from your button to add an event, you need to retrieve the reference from it.
Like this:
public class YourActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_your_layout)
Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.your_button_id)
//button.setOnClickListener........
}
}

What am I doing wrong I don't know, I am fairly new to android programming can someone help me out. What am I supposed to put in the attribute part of the code?
Here is my code: https://pastebin.com/57mTUMWX

You should not be creating view elements in your Code.
Add the view for CurrencyText to your XML.
Then you make sure it has an #+id/myName and find it by doing
CurrencyText myText = findViewById(R.id.myName);
