I don't think that the process is crashing, at least not in the
emulator since I can see all these logging messages:

11-07 23:11:33.849: WARN/UsageStats(61): Something wrong here, didn't
expect "mypackagename" to be resumed

There are lots of them. It looks like it gets stuck in some kind of
loop.


Btw. It used to work, and I think it is great that it used to work.
There are lots of people in the world who speak more than one
language, where none of the languages are English, or they might
understand English but have two other languages as preferred
languages.

Setting the OS locale to Swedish would make the application display
the English resources if Swedish isn't available, but an application
that I have installed might support e.g .Spanish, and that could be
preferred over English.
