Hello Dave,
I got the apk from your official site, here:

this afternoon.
Well, I hope the problem can be solved, and I'm glad if my experience
can be of help to the community.
Ciao for now,
Ollie

Thanks. I've forwarded your message to my son, who is sighted, and
works on Arch Linux. I can't connect my phone to the pc, because
Windows xp doesn't let me do that, unless i install Kies and a lot of
other stuff, which I'd rather not bother with.
I don't blame you for not wanting to install extra stuff on a Windows system.
:-) Anyway, your son clearly did a good job as I now have your log.
Your problem is the same as another user is having, and I don't udnerstand it.
Can you tell me where you got your brltty apk from, and when you got it? I'm
wondering if you have a version of it that somehow got created incorrectly.
For the curious, this is the problem:
Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: XML document must start with
<preference-headers> tag; foundPreferenceScreen at Binary XML file line #1
at
android.preference.PreferenceActivity.loadHeadersFromResource(PreferenceActivity.java:863)
at
org.a11y.brltty.android.SettingsActivity.onBuildHeaders(SettingsActivity.java:102)
at
android.preference.PreferenceActivity.onCreate(PreferenceActivity.java:628)
at
org.a11y.brltty.android.SettingsActivity.onCreate(SettingsActivity.java:97)
at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:5206)
As you can see, the error is that an XML resource begins with the
<PreferenceScreen> element when it should begin with the <preference-headers>
element. The actual source, however, is actually correct. Brltty's
SettingsActivity object contains the following:
public void onBuildHeaders (List<Header> headers) {
loadHeadersFromResource(R.xml.settings_headers, headers);
}
And the resource in view, res/xml/settings_headers.xml, begins with:
<preference-headers
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
>
So the XML resource really does begin, as it should, with the
<preference-headers> element. So, at least for now, I'm not sure what the
problem is. The fact that we now have two users reporting the very same
problem is intriguing. I hope we'll be able to figure it out.
