AIR application crash on Android

Question

I develop an application for Android using Adobe AIR and FlashDevelop. Unfortunately my app crashes after start (standard "process has air.HelloWorld stopped" message) and I can't setup debugger (freeze on "waiting for Flash Player to connect to debugger").

When I try to start it in FlashDevelop - it works. The problem arises when I install .apk on emulator and try to start it.

Main.as

import flash.desktop.NativeApplication;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.StageAlign;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
import flash.ui.Multitouch;
import flash.ui.MultitouchInputMode;

public class Main extends Sprite {

    public function Main() : void {
        stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
        stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
        stage.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, deactivate);

        // touch or gesture?
        Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;

        // entry point
        var main : FlixelMain = new FlixelMain();
        addChild(main);
    }

    private function deactivate(e:Event) : void {
        // auto-close
        NativeApplication.nativeApplication.exit();
    }

}

FlixelMain.as

import org.flixel.*;

public class FlixelMain extends FlxGame {

    public function FlixelMain() {
        FlxG.mobile = true;
        super(480, 800, MenuState, 1, 60);
    }

}

It may have something to do with the speed of your network connection.

If you run the Debugger over a slow connection, for example a WIFI connection from your device, the debugger can't seem to keep up with the amount of data that's send over the network. When you hit a break point, the Stack-traces and local variables are all send over the network.

If your connection creates a bottleneck, it may slow things down enough for the app thinks it's crashed and it then exits.

Running the debugger on a faster network connection may solve your problem.
