Ps: I realize my problem is a bit vague, and that I unfortunately have few details to share to help understanding what's going on.
Maybe somebody can give me hints on what would be the best course of action to follow the next time I encounter this problem (like look at some specific logs, or put a breakpoint in some specific Android class...) ? Thanks a lot for your help.
