My activity invokes the camera with the ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE intent. If the camera activity returns succesfully, I set a flag in the onActivityResult callback, and based on the value of the flag I start a fragment in my onResume to add a caption to the image that was captured. This seems to work ok.
I just got a stack trace from the "wild" complaining that I was trying to commit a fragment transaction after onSaveInstanceState has been called. But I'm doing the commit in my onResume method! Why would android complain about this? I do have android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize" set in my AndroidManifest.xml, so an orientation change should not trigger this....
This occurred on a Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-i747) running 4.0.4
Here is the stack:

Any help or wisdom is appreciated.
you can use the method
commitAllowingStateLoss()
but be aware you can lose the state of your activity as you can see in google's android reference which explain the different between the two in the following way
from my experience it may cause the
addToBackStack
method not to work sometimes so you will need to add it manually on the fragment and of course the state won't be saved (textbox text ext.)this worked for me... found this out on my own... hope it helps you!
1) do NOT have a global "static" FragmentManager / FragmentTransaction.
2) onCreate, ALWAYS initialize the FragmentManager again!
sample below :-
I was always getting this when I tried to show fragment in onActivityForResult() method, so the problem was next:
What I made is next:
I first develop my app targeting android 2.2 (SDK 8), using the support v4 library, and when I start using it with 4.2 (SDK 17), I had the same troubles with my fragments. But changing my Manifest to android:minSdkVersion="8" android:targetSdkVersion="17", solved my problems. Maybe this hepls you too.
I think I know the answer - I'm using the FragmentActivity from v4 compatibility library, and so I need to perform my fragment transactions in onResumeFragments instead of in onResume. Can someone confirm?
Update I think I have found an explanation and a solution here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23096#c4 I implemented the Empty Fragment Workaround posted there and got no more IllegalStateException so far.
I add the invisible state fragment in my activity like this;
The following code is taken from above link:
and invoke fragment transactions that would intuitively go into onResume or onResumeFragments into my custom onFragmentAttached method that is invoked by the invisible state fragment. I do not use onResumeFragments at all and do not issue any fragment transactions in onResume.
So, to sum it up. If you are using the support lib and fragments, pretty much forget about onResume, forget about onResumeFragments and implement your own "onResume" based on the above workaround. This is somewhat ridiculous.
I cannot confirm. I have the exact same problem. even though I am issuing fragment transaction in onResumeFragments. This used to work as I posted here: IllegalStateException - Fragment support library .
It seems the error only occurs on 4.0.3 and 4.0.4. However it does neither occur always nor in my Emulator.
I am using support lib rev. 10 and API 16. I call DialogFragment.show in onResumeFragments and continously get this ridiculous exception from some random users. I cannot reproduce it locally.
