FC on startup..

[escargot]

if I try to open the game in the recent apps menu (via holding the home button), I get a force close every time. I haven't had any problems opening it from the app drawer & haven't tried from a desktop shortcut yet.

using version 2.2.1; LG ally.

not sure what other information is needed. let me know.

[sdevaney]

Strange, I just tried on my Droid Incredible running 2.2 and I get no force close. I even went and killed the application manually and still no force close.

Can anyone else re-create this bug?

[escargot]

maybe it's a conflict with the launcher app I'm using? (adw). give me a sec & I'll test it without.

edit: hm. same issue when I'm not using the launcher...

I just tried it, I had no problem opening it from the recent apps menu. Another positive... I now know I have a recent apps menu. I didn't know about that feature on my phone lol.

Works fine soft and hard home button, on Nook Color CM7.0.0/Android2.3.3

I have seen this behavior a few times as well and I think it happens when the app has been terminated by the OS because of memory shortage. I will see if I can capture some logs when it happens next time.

And here are the logs.

Thanks for the stacktrace Johan.

It might have something to do with memory shortage, which *might* be solved by the next update. Because of the massive amounts of new maps for the new version, the map loading is re-wired to only load the maps that the player is on. This might solve it.

But then again, it might be something totally different that causes it
