If 2.3s is too slow for startup, would a splash screen work? Unfortunately we have no samples for what to do for custom splash screens, but it involves writing a Java activity (the "real" activity) which displays the splash screen (google for Java code) then launches the managed activity through the generated Android Callable Wrapper. You'll want to investigate e.g. obj/Debug/android/src to see the generated wrappers (for types & names) and obj/Debug/android/AndroidManifest.xml (which also provides the types & names you can use with Activity.startActivity). > I've been running the app on a HTC Sensation and the startup speed isn't much > better on that device. If your app is taking far longer that 2.3s to launch, then you're doing to much work in your Activity.OnCreate() method. Try doing more work on a background thread. - Jon [0] http://www.htc.com/europe/product/sensation/specification.html [1] http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_google_nexus_one-3069.php _______________________________________________ Monodroid mailing list Monodroid@lists.ximian.com UNSUBSCRIBE INFORMATION: http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monodroid
