Well the overall answer is. This is my first Droid App and first time using Java. I am an ME and thus not so professionally experienced on how to layout and plan software. I more just jump in and start hacking away. So due to that I made an improper design decision at the start of this app. Now that I am almost done, i really don't care to fix it. Everything else in the program works fine, except this button mashing issue. I don't see how my calls to onStart() would cause this specific issue and don't want to fix something that isn't broke just to make code look better.
To explain my overall design that lead me to call onStart() All my app needs to do is go thru a sequence of checks, gps, gps init, internet availability, is my location in some list, then display a pic. If it fails anywhere along the line I wanted to throw a dialog box. The user can check whatever errored. Then i just want to run thru the whole sequence again. So to me, the real answer to any dialog box was to just start the whole program again. Thus I called onStart(). If everything was up and running the first time, the whle program would go the whole way thru without displaying one single dialog box to the user and the app would finish what it needed to do.
