Hi, I am an Android app developer, all of my work is within the Java runtime environment. Before you point me to the android-developers list, please consider the following:
I have had a number of users of my app report that with it installed on their rooted 2.2 devices (primarily the Verizon Droid) it causes the phone to reboot anywhere from every 15 minutes to every hour. I realize that the 2.2 codebase is not released yet (don't even know when), but the last thing I want is to be stung by 1,000's of users who suddenly encounter this problem after the OS is released into the wild. As such, I am doing my best to determine the cause of this problem. Users have reported that the phone will spontaneously reboot at pretty much any time (on the phone, off the phone, browsing the web, idle, asleep) with the one exception being that it seems to be stable when it is "plugged in" (Most of this info has been gleaned from various forum postings, so accuracy cannot be 100% confirmed) Is there any way to access the Android equivalent of /etc/messages (or some other crash-dump file) AFTER the phone has rebooted? (given that the users of these devices have root access) I *suspect* that the problem may be related to the network stack (the app tries to poll a server for changes periodically), and I think the problem may be somewhere in the handling of 'bad/unavailable' IP connections.
