Bug squashing.
I've had a couple reports since release of two kinds of problems.
The first one is a crash when the user takes a picture and goes to the measure activity. The problem here is your phone has run out of virtual memory. I had this problem early on in development, and I thought I had fixed it because it stopped happening on my DroidX. It looks like it could still be a problem on some devices with large cameras and small memory. I'm looking into a better way to fix this. If this happens try taking the picture again sometimes the phone is operating right on the edge of having enough memory and closing some other apps could help.
The second one is where the range and caliber dialogs keep looping. This one has been driving me nuts because it is a known problem with Android. The problem occurs when the dialog comes up in an orientation that is not the orientation that the device is in. Like if the screen wants to be in landscape mode, but the device is being held in portrait mode. I am also searching for a solution to this problem, but in the meantime if this comes up Press the back button on your device once to dismiss the dialogs.
Rest assured I am working on providing the most stable app possible, and thank you for your purchase!
