I think people are overlooking the shut down issue you're having, but it does seem you are the only person having that issue. It may be a fault with the app, it may be a fault with the media the app is installed on, it may be some other piece of software on your phone causing the issue.

I agree that this is  a bit stubborn of me, but as you admitted, to have shut down my phone for hours or a day, just to get one app to work is indeed bad programming.

But I will give this a try during tonight and I am almost sure the app will still shutdown itself, but I am willing to try this.

Donnie,

This may be just my overlooking it in this thread, but I didn't see it mentioned. When you download the DB from your desktop app to your phone, you (general usage of you) have to let DVDP desktop running until it is complete.

Thx for all the help.

Yeh, i figured out after the very first crash that my DVDProfiler needs to stay running on my windows system

Midian, I am pretty sure you are correct with this, I will try later to shut everything down on my cell and then try to transfer from my windows profiler.

Quoting DarklyNoon:

I diabled standbymode, I even let the display on.

Did you have to manually disable these?

When updating the collection DVDP-A is supposed to automatically disable Standby and screensaver-mode.

If I recall correctly the original Amazon version had some problems with unwarranted shutdowns.
Please check the Amazon Store app if you have the latest version of DVDProfiler running.

Sounds like you have a very aggressive standby mode that kills apps so probably not a fault with Profiler.

When I'm connected my display stays on at all times and I've never had a connection failure, but then I'm using WiFi only. I wouldn't even think of trying to download my database over 3g, the connections are just to unreliable where I live.

Well,

of course I cannot know if any other app interferes with Profiler,
but what I can say that all my other apps work like a charm, I did not have a single problem with any app I have installed.

So for me it is pretty obvious that DVDProfiler is the problem here, well I have to say I am sure it is.
Because when I shut down everything that was running, the same problems still occur.

And again I have to say, an application which needs me to shut down everything else either on my cell or on my computer is very badly programmed.
Such a thing should never be allowed to sell.

Just my 2 cents on this imho failed android app

Donnie

But the point is that you're the only person reporting this issue. With somebody else reporting the app as running on the same phone you have, it strongly suggests there is something on your phone that's causing a conflict and then the crash.

Should that conflict happen? Probably not, but anybody who's used computers for any length of time knows that not every configuration can be accounted for. So why don't you try and help fix the issue by raising it with invelos via a support ticket, rather than just moaning about how you've thrown away 6 euros?
