When I transmit my game to my Android phone the player downloads the app. Then the screen turn black and a few seconds later the player is closed down. I have no idea what might be causing this. Has anybody experienced this and can give me some hints to what might be the problem? I have no problem running a basic hello world app in the player. I have not used any new command I haven't used before. Have tried reinstalling the player too.

I am using Tier 1 1075.

Does the game run smoothly in Windows?

Did you install the player from the 'Your Products' page on the TGC site? I don't know if the google store one is up to date with 1075.

Cheers,

Runs without any errors in Windows. I am using the one in Google's store, not had any problems with it before.

Unfortunately the symptoms described occur with pretty much any fatal error on android, though the most common cause for me tends to be media related - location, format, filename etc.

I would suggest adding some manual breakpoints at key locations in your app. - show something on screen, sync() and wait a while.

You should be able to narrow it down by what gets to screen and what doesn't

Well, I had a go with the beta player and it worked. Wasn't so hard to install that I had feared. Thanks
