Hi Diane, I will post a bug report with example code after the developer challenge monday deadline.
I've found the problem, it seems to be totaly unrelated, but this is for sure where the problem comes from. I reverted project then added code line by line. This is where it went wrong: (this is in onCreate() ) Typeface face=Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/ ds_digi.ttf"); //mode.setTypeface(face); When I comment out "mode.setTypeface(face);" the application fails. When I put it back in the app works fine(or if I delete the whole block) The app does not fail at this point, but later on, in a seemingly unrelated operation. I can't believe i've spent 10 hours on this :(. 10 hours I could have been improving my app. Anyway, thats life I suppose! At least i can now finish it.
