Working in 1.5 with Android and a custom url screen, I want to link to a url for a Flickr gallery into the app. This works perfectly on the iPhone. On the Android device, it initially seems to work, and then when I select a picture it goes back to the home page for the gallery. On the home page, the loading spinner spins until I force stop the app. Any ideas on this? Update: This problem is not related to Flickr at all--I was able to duplicate the crashing on other url screens. I think the problem occurs when the user clicks on a link our of a mobile site to a full site.

same thing happened to me if your good with jQuery you might want to check this website out and scroll to the bottom where it says "How to use it"...it looks promising. http://www.photoswipe.com/

Thanks for the lead, @ceerup! You know, this problem is broader than Flickr. I had the same problem with another screen to a different website. I think what may be happening is that when you click on a link to another url that is not a mobile url, that it crashes the system. I changed the initial title for this to reflect this change.

Say, this problem is broader than I thought. Android can crash in my other buzztouch apps. I tried it on another buzztouch app that another developer made and it also crashed. The crash is more serious than most because of how difficult it is to repair. I am not an Android user, but the only way I can find for the user to get the app unstuck is turn to go home->options-> settings->applications->find the application->force stop. (Or they can turn the device entirely off.)

well flickr puts out json that doesnt work. for me atleast.

do you get an error message in Google Play's developer center or Eclipse?

Good question! I will hook it up and check.

I found the answer to this problem in another part of the forum. Fred has this all explained at the following link: http://myskylla.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/the-spinning-wheel-of-death-android/

yay! glad it's fixed.
