android - Image on ImageView lost after Activity is destroyed

Question

I am trying to make an app where I can let a user select a picture to display on their profile. I am able to browse and set their selected image on imageview. But the image is lost once the the activity is destroyed. I tried to implement onSaveInstanceState but still it's the same. I'm wondering if I am using it correctly. I hope you can help a newbie like me. Thanks in advance. Here's the code that I'm using:

public class AccountFragment extends Fragment implements OnClickListener {
private LoginDataBaseAdapter loginDataBaseAdapter;
Bitmap image;
Bitmap bitmap;
String picture_location;
TextView textTargetUri;
ImageView targetImage;

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {


        View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_account, container, false);


            textTargetUri = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.targeturi);

            targetImage=(ImageView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.profpic);

            targetImage.setOnClickListener(new ImageView.OnClickListener(){
            @Override
            public void onClick(View arg0) {
                Intent   intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
                android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
                startActivityForResult(intent, 0);
            }});

            if (savedInstanceState != null) {
                //if there is a bundle, use the saved image resource (if one is there)
                image = savedInstanceState.getParcelable("BitmapImage");
                targetImage.setImageBitmap(image);
                textTargetUri.setText(savedInstanceState.getString("path_to_picture"));
            } 



        return rootView;



    }

    @Override 
    public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState){
        super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
        savedInstanceState.putParcelable("BitmapImage", bitmap);
        savedInstanceState.putString("path_to_picture", picture_location);
    }


    @Override
    public void onActivityResult( int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

        if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
            Uri targetUri = data.getData();
            picture_location = targetUri.toString();
            textTargetUri.setText(targetUri.toString());
            Bitmap bitmap;
            try {
                bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(getActivity().getContentResolver().openInputStream(targetUri));
                targetImage.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
            } 
            catch (FileNotFoundException e){
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }   
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    }}

By the way, you may have noticed that instead of using the onRestoreInstanceState after oncreate, I tried to use the different approach. I found an answer from another question that you can also implement it inside the oncreate. I used it since whenever I declare the function onRestoreInstanceState I am being asked to remove the @Override annotation.

@Override 
protected void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState){       
            image = savedInstanceState.getParcelable("BitmapImage");
            targetImage.setImageBitmap(image);
            textTargetUri.setText(savedInstanceState.getString("path_to_picture"));
    }

if you are not finishing the activity, you can use onSavedInstance() to store the picture_location value and bind it back either in onCreate(SavedInst)/onRestore() from the picture_location value.
