Bug: ScummVM screen black when switching apps

Post by c0080900v »

After a few switches between Android apps and having ScummVM.

After switching back and forth with ScummVM and other apps, only the ScummVM screen is black and I'm forced to kill it.

It's an Android 2.2 tablet.

Doesn't switching to the launcher and back refresh the screen as well? Works for me. (Android 2.3)

This kind of issue is impossible for us to look into without details about which tablet it is and a copy of the log entries made by ScummVM startup.

What's the log directory location for the ScummVM log on an Android device?

I still need an answer to my question.

Basically I just need to know where I can find the log entries that were mentioned.

They're in the Android log, so you can retrieve them with aLogcat or similar. The log size is set by the manufacturer, so the messages might get deleted quite quickly.
