Hi Jacque,
I just tried your test stack and I can't get it to complete the APK to load
on either of my devices. This is odd. I tried loading my application right
after to make sure I hadn't made any changes to the Android Stand-Alone
settings and I was able to compile my application.

Thanks for the comments. I've actually seen the problem with initial startup
on a few apps but in this case a relaunch still crashes. :(

Since you have a few older devices, it might help the team narrow down
what's affected if you try out my test stack. Bug report is here:
https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21325

I only have Android Marshmallow on my test phone(s) but I'm betting it will
fail with any older OS. Or it may be the version of Java I installed, which
I believe LC 9 required.
