Thanks for the comments. I've actually seen the problem with initial
startup on a few apps but in this case a relaunch still crashes. :(
Since you have a few older devices, it might help the team narrow down
what's affected if you try out my test stack. Bug report is here:
https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21325
I only have Android Marshmallow on my test phone(s) but I'm betting it
will fail with any older OS. Or it may be the version of Java I
installed, which I believe LC 9 required.

Hi Jacque,
You have been one of the people on the List that has answered many of my
questions about building Android Applications. I do have an application that
uses mergJSON and the problem that I have is only during the initial
starting of the application after the APK is loaded. I also get a blank
initial screen. I found that if I close the application and then restart the
application - it runs. I have also had problems with applications locking up
on one Android Device and will run on another without problems. The problems
that I encountered were mainly opening data files across the internet on the
failing device. I actually solved some of those problems by putting a delay
after I call for data across the internet. Both devices are using Android
5.1.1. The failing Device is a Nexus 7 and the other device that doesn't
fail is a generic X10 Chinese cheaper Tablet. The only other problem I
noticed with LC 9 is a latency in starting the applications.

Subject: Re: Android APK sanity check
I created a plain do-nothing stack and it works on my Samsung. Then I set
the inclusions to same ones in my working project. The plain stack then had
the same misbehavior -- black screen and crash on launch.
One by one I turned off each inclusion, tested, and then turned it back on
and disabled the next one. It looks like the culprit is mergJSON.
With that included I get the crash, without it the apk behaves.
I'll submit my test stack and a bug report.

Hi all,
The first thing that came to my mind was the bug report that Paul
referenced, but I had a look at the Samsung S5 specs and it seems it
has an ARM chip, so it should not be affected by this bug.
@Jacque does that happen with any android standalone you build with LC
9.0.0, or just this particular one?
Best,
Panos
