Overview
The Android Client for Android currently has the following known problems:
The lack of a mounted memory card is not detected
Description
If no memory card is present, or if the device has not mounted or even unmounted the memory card due to contact problems, configuration can not be read and data can not be read or written.
Effects
Data loss can occur.
Severity
High.
Solution plans
The next RC release will detect a missing memory card and inform the user about this fact.
Future outlook
Later versions might support configurable data paths for devices without removable memory cards.
Rotating a the handheld or sliding a physical keyboard resets the current page
Description
If a rotation-aware android device is rotated, or if a physical keyboard is sled in or out, the current activity resets.
Effects
This may cause loss of the measurement value currently beeing entered and eventually forces the measurement to be re-done.
Severity
Low, because the devices used by costumers so far are not affected due to lack of rotation awareness or slidable physical keyboards.
Solution plans
We already know how to solve this problem, it should be solved before MDA will be labeled GA.
