Strange problem here, we have an android app that was just published to the market yesterday.  It installs fine on tablets, but when you install it on a phone it just opens to a black screen.  If I plug the same phone into my comp and debug/publish from inside flash pro it installs on the phone and runs fine..  What could this be?

Still haven't found a solution to this.  I'm not even sure if it's just my phone or all phones - maybe somebody here with a larger screen Android phone can try installing our app and replying back with the outcome [market link -its free]?

Here are our hardware specs and experience

HTC Inspire 4g (att)

From Market: Launches into black screen, does nothing

From Flash Pro, direct install APK: Launches into the app just fine and you can use it

Galaxy Tab 10.1

From Market: Launches into the app just fine and you can use it

From Flash Pro, direct install APK: Launches into the app just fine and you can use it

It doesn't work on my HTC Thunderbolt.

Hey Joe, so what could be the problem between the market and testing from the IDE?  Would you be willing to svn checkout our source and test it via Flash Pro?  If so, can you shoot me an email to dzedward@gmail.com?  It's just strange, there seems to be a disconnected from the packaged APK and whatever Flash Pro uses to install it on the device while testing, either via usb debug, or publshing with the install on device option checked...
