HireADroid just had 2 back-to-back releases that address issue with some users experiencing FC on calling menu options on “Details” screen
HireADroid – releases 2.3.2 and 2.3.3
Release 2.3.2 adds ability to open job description in the stand-alone browser. The option is accessible from the “Summary” view by clicking “Menu” button (link) on your device and selecting “Open in browser” item. This will take you out of HireADroid app and load job listing into mobile browser. If you want to bookmark the job or you don’t like how job is rendered inside the “Summary” view you may want to use this option
Save In Browser
Release 2.3.3 fixes minor NullPointerException bug
HireADroid – release 2.3.1
The 2.3.1 release finally puts FC bug to rest. If you are Android developer you may be interested on how this bug appear and how it was solved.
Back in release 2.1.9 we added ability for Froyo (Android 2.2) users to save HireADroid app to the SD card. One of the steps involved was setting our development environment to be compatible with Froyo. Unfortunately it also meant that in the next release we inadvertently used feature that wasn’t compatible with Android 1.5. After the release some of our users with older phones, running A1.5 started experience the FC attempting to display search results which was cased by java.lang.VerifyError. This was hard to track but fortunately easy to fix. So release 2.3.1 gets rid of this FC for good. It’s been in production since last Sunday and not a single FC was reported.
The 2.3.1 release finally fixes correct titles for “Send To” option which was renamed to “Share By”.
We also added ability to sort search results by date (default) or relevance. This option is available as a menu item from the search results screen
