title: How to avoid Service to be stopped on configuration change?
body: <p>Hi and thanks for your help.</p>
  
  <p>I have the following situation.</p>
  
  <p>My Activity is bound to a Service that performs heavy data retrival from internet via an AsyncTask. </p>
  
  <p>Since the Service is heavy I need to make make sure it is stopped when the user navigates away for the Activity, therefore I make sure to stop the service in <code>onDestroy()</code>.</p>
  
  <p>When configuration changes <code>onDestroy()</code> is called - and so are <code>onPause()</code> and <code>onStop()</code>- and subsequently the Service is stopped by <code>onDestroy()</code>.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The point is that I do not want the Service tho stop on configuration change.</strong></p>
  
  <p>Please any suggestion very much appreciated!</p>
  
  <p>And thanks for your help!</p>
