Android Tablet Take Picture Camera Intent Activity Restarts

In my app, there is an option to take pictures from camera. My FragmentActivity runs in portrait mode only. In my Fragment, when user taps on button, I launches camera app using:

private void pickFromCamera() {

    Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    try {
        File file = new File(createImageFile());
        if(!file.exists()) {
            file.createNewFile();
        }
        intent.putExtra(android.provider.MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, Uri.fromFile(file));
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    startActivityForResult( intent , ACTION_REQUEST_CAMERA );

}

and in onActivityResult of fragment, I am doing this:

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    try {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
        if ( resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK ) {
            switch ( requestCode ) {
            case ACTION_REQUEST_GALLERY:
                .....
            case ACTION_REQUEST_CAMERA:

                if(cameraImageFilePath == null) {
                // show error message and return
                }
                addImage(cameraImageFilePath);
                break;

            }
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

but I am facing strange issue here. On phones, it works normally. On tablet it works when picture is taken in landscape mode and save button is tapped from camera app. But If I take picture in portrait and presses save button, my app crashed. Here is logcat output:

Then I added onActivityResult method in FragmentActivity and surrounded the super call with try catch block as:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int arg0, int arg1, Intent arg2) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    try {
        super.onActivityResult(arg0, arg1, arg2);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

Now what is happening is exception is catched and no crash but my activity is being restarted. I know there is a way to save the state of the activity using onSavedInstanceState and then... but my activity is very complex , it cannot be restored to its previous state bcz it is the main activity and a lot fragments get loaded and etc... Is there any workaround for this? I am using Samsung's 10" tablet having Android HoneyComb 3.2. Edit: Also, I have added android:configChanges="orientation" in manifest.
