How do I move cursor to end of EditText line after an orientation change?

Question

I have an EditText line on a UI screen for a user to enter a sentence. If the the user leaves the cursor in the middle of the sentence and then does an orientation change, I want the cursor to move to the end of the sentence. My understanding was that the OS creates a new Activity and new focus on orientation change so I set up the below code, but to no avail. Please advise.

partial Activity file:

...
cListenerEditText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new OnFocusChangeListener() {
         @Override
         public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
             if (hasFocus && (cListenerEditText.getText().length() > 0)) {
                cListenerEditText.setSelection(cListenerEditText.getText().length());
             }
         }
    });

Try to do this in onResume instead, checking a boolean field to have it work only on recreation.

if(!initialized) {
    initialized = true; 
    cListenerEditText.setSelection(cListenerEditText.getText().length());
}

Edit:

Sample Activity

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

  private EditText cListenerEditText;
  private boolean initialized = false;

  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    cListenerEditText = findViewById(R.id.listenerEditText);
  }

  @Override
  protected void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    if(!initialized) {
      initialized = true;
      cListenerEditText.setSelection(cListenerEditText.getText().length());
    }
  }
}
