[android-developers] Re: Google analytics crash

Hmm, I have only one global tracker object that I create in the
onCreate() of my main activity, and with a regular dispatch interval
through the format tracker.start("UA-12345-0", nseconds, this), so I'd
say that it all works from one alive thread. However, in one pair of
crash logs the first GoogleAnalyticsTracker.trackEvent() crash occurs
after my app had been running for some time, while the second
GoogleAnalyticsTracker.trackEvent() crash occurs immediately at app
startup only 3 minutes later, for the same device FINGERPRINT,
suggesting that indeed some sort of lock had lived on even across runs
to cause a second crash because the second run would not be owning the
lingering lock. This was for a Samsung GT-I5800 running Android 2.1-
update1.
