[SOLVED] Android Activity is getting instantiate twice while using Dark Mode

Android Activity is getting instantiate twice while using Dark Mode

My launcher activity i.e. MainActivity is getting instantiated twice while using AppCompatDelegate.setDefaultNightMode(AppCompatDelegate.MODE_NIGHT_YES) which is leading to two network calls and making weird behavior.

Is there any to control this and make to initialize only once?. I've tried using launchMode = "singleTop" and "singleInstance"

 override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    AppCompatDelegate.setDefaultNightMode(AppCompatDelegate.MODE_NIGHT_YES)
    mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this)
    Log.e(TAG,"Skillet")
    loadStateData()
    initializeListeners()
}

Solution

Found a solution after trying a few of my practices

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    AppCompatDelegate.setDefaultNightMode(AppCompatDelegate.MODE_NIGHT_YES)
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    }

Call dark mode function before super of onCreate()

It will prevent instantiating activity twice
