android fragment- How to save states of views in a fragment when another fragment is pushed on top of it

In android, a fragment (say FragA) gets added to the backstack and another fragment (say FragB) comes to the top. Now on hitting back FragA comes to the top and the onCreateView() is called. Now I had FragA in a particular state before FragB got pushed on top of it.

My Question is how can I restore FragA to its previous state ? Is there a way to save state (like say in a Bundle) and if so then which method should I override ?

Just inflate your View for once.

Exemple follows:

public class AFragment extends Fragment {

private View mRootView;
@Nullable
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    if(mRootView==null){
        mRootView = inflater.inflate(R.id.fragment_a, container, false);
        //......
    }
    return mRootView;
}

}

A simple way of keeping the values of fields in different fragments in an activity

Create the Instances of fragments and add instead of replace and remove

    FragA  fa= new FragA();
    FragB  fb= new FragB();
    FragC  fc= new FragB();
    fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
    fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
    fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragmnt_container, fa);
    fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragmnt_container, fb);
    fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.fragmnt_container, fc);
    fragmentTransaction.show(fa);
    fragmentTransaction.hide(fb);
    fragmentTransaction.hide(fc);
    fragmentTransaction.commit();

Then just show and hide the fragments instead of adding and removing those again

    fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
    fragmentTransaction.hide(fa);
    fragmentTransaction.show(fb);
    fragmentTransaction.hide(fc);
    fragmentTransaction.commit()

;
