java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can not perform this action after onSaveInstanceState

You should do the transaction in a Handler as follows:

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
    Log.v("MyFragmentActivity", "onFriendAddedAsyncTask/onPostExecute");
    new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
                ft = fm.beginTransaction();
                ft.remove(dummyFragment);
                ft.commit();
            }
        });
}

Thanks Oleg Vaskevich. Using a WeakReference of the FragmentActivity solved the problem. My code looks as follows now:

public class MyFragmentActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnFriendAddedListener {

    private static WeakReference<MyFragmentActivity> wrActivity = null;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        wrActivity = new WeakReference<MyFragmentActivity>(this);
        ...

    private class onFriendAddedAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {

        @Override
        protected void onPreExecute() {
            FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
            FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
            DummyFragment dummyFragment = DummyFragment.newInstance();
            ft.add(R.id.dummy_fragment_layout, dummyFragment);
            ft.commit();
        }

        @Override
        protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
            final Activity activity = wrActivity.get();
            if (activity != null && !activity.isFinishing()) {
                FragmentManager fm = activity.getSupportFragmentManager();
                FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
                DummyFragment dummyFragment = (DummyFragment) fm.findFragmentById(R.id.dummy_fragment_layout);
                ft.remove(dummyFragment);
                ft.commitAllowingStateLoss();
            }
        }

I believe the correct answer to this question is the following method.

public abstract int commitAllowingStateLoss ()

Like commit() but allows the commit to be executed after an activity's state is saved. This is dangerous because the commit can be lost if the activity needs to later be restored from its state, so this should only be used for cases where it is okay for the UI state to change unexpectedly on the user.

The above description relates to this method.

protected void onSaveInstanceState(android.os.Bundle outState)

This problem occurs precisely when the device goes to sleep.

Short And working Solution :

Follow Simple Steps :

Step 1 : Override onSaveInstanceState state in respective fragment. And remove super method from it.

@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
}

Step 2 : Use CommitAllowingStateLoss(); instead of commit(); while fragment operations.

fragmentTransaction.commitAllowingStateLoss();

Check if the activity isFinishing() before showing the fragment.

Example:

if(!isFinishing()) {
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
            FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
            DummyFragment dummyFragment = DummyFragment.newInstance();
            ft.add(R.id.dummy_fragment_layout, dummyFragment);
            ft.commitAllowingStateLoss();
}
