I encountered a memory leak with Samsung devices.
If some activity has EditText this activity will be leaked.
To show this I created a small test applications.
First Activity (called MyActivity) contains EditText and Button. By pressing a button you call finish() on first Activity and open second one.
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
findViewById(R.id.goTo)).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
finish();
Intent intent = new Intent(MyActivity.this, AnotherActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
When I am on second Activity I take a hprof. From Memory Analyzer I see that MyActivity is leaked because of reference from InputMethodManager

This problem occurs only in Samsung S III and Tab devices. So there is no leak in Xperia P device and others. Please help how to bypass this error.
