But what if you need to close the connection and you don't want to put it
in the onDestroy, coz the onDestroy gets called when you change the

We don't need to keep closing and opening the connection when ever the
activity gets recreated. Also we need it such a way that the activity needs
to destroyed on origination change.
What are my options ?
