Custom Text Screen Not Showing Up

I have a custom text screen in my app and today the text suddenly stopped showing up. When I went to the screen in the control panel, all the text was erased. I put the text back in and clicked save. It successfully saves and when I go to the app it asks to refresh but even after you do, nothing shows up.

Nevermind, now it's showing up. Don't know why it is now, but it works.

I had a different error show up. I just wanted to display a couple words in custom text with just one screen, just to get it working. In android and ios emulators, nothing shows up on the screen. in android, i get a "file not downloaded yet" error. do you know the problem? this seems so simple to do but it's not working

I got everything working correctly when I started using html files, not custom text. I think it works fine as custom text also but for some reason, it has something to do with the way you save...I'm not sure what that's about. Anyway it takes a while for me when I make changes but in my emulator, I go to my home screen and I refresh ALL THE TIME for the changes to apply. In my HTML file screen, if I get that error, I go back to my home screen, refresh, go back to the file...back and forth like that until the content shows up. Like I said, I don't know why it takes so long for me, I'm probably doing something wrong but it's working. Also lots of times I clear cache, uninstall, run as android application from Eclipse...couple times redownloaded source code...anyway, it's a hassle but it works. Hope this helps
