I have created 2 versions of my app, one with and one without ads. I have used a library that contains pretty much the whole paid app. The free version extends the base library's HomeScreenActivity and starts its own MainActivity when a button is clicked.
The app works fine on my devices and emulators, but, according to Amazon, it fails to start on Kindle devices. It would be great if there was an emulator that I could use to test it on, but they no longer have an emulator. They have sent me the following logs, but I am not able to figure out what is causing this loop.

Here is my source for the ad supported HomeScreenActivity:
package com.myandroidapps.thegamefree;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
public class HomeScreenActivity extends com.myandroidapps.thegamebase.HomeScreenActivity
{
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
((Button)findViewById(R.id.btnStart)).setOnClickListener(
new OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
startActivity(new Intent(HomeScreenActivity.this, com.myandroidapps.thegamefree.MainActivity.class));
}
}
);
}
}
And here is the base class:
package com.myandroidapps.thegamebase;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
public class HomeScreenActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_home_screen);
((Button)findViewById(R.id.btnStart)).setOnClickListener(
new OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
startActivity(new Intent(HomeScreenActivity.this, MainActivity.class));
}
}
);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu)
{
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.home, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item)
{
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_about)
startActivity(new Intent(HomeScreenActivity.this, com.myandroidapps.myandroidappslib.AboutActivity.class));
else if (id == R.id.action_settings)
startActivity(new Intent(HomeScreenActivity.this, SettingsActivity.class));
else
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
return true;
}
}
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
