Setting mFact to default

Okay I understand we are setting mFact to a default fact. But what if we wanted to set it to the fact it was on before the orientation switch?

do you mean to set the initial value of mFact as the value before the orientation switch? And then, when starts the app, it initializes with this saved value?
