I have run 859 many times now without a crash. If I am the only one 
complaining, let's leave it for the moment and see
what happens? I have several logcats for 858, but I would wait and see 
if this is persistent.

Comment or 2:

1) The font on the Show GPS fixes is much better, to such a degree that 
I would consider it solved. Obviously if the dive site name is long, 
then there is an overrun on the right. On my phone the "Auto-created 
dive" site name only just touches the left side of the three lines of 
the drag pad.

2) I have some dives with lots of notes. The notes appear to be cut off 
after an & character in the text of the notes: inconvenient.

3) I also see the white-screen phenomenon that Miika wrote about when 
one scrolls far down the dive list. Must be a buffering problem (see 
attached image). If I scroll slowly the problem does not occur.

4) the apparent freezing of the UI while there is internet communication 
should be made a bit more user friendly, perhaps with a blatant message 
somewhere onscreen that says "Synchronising with cloud" or something 
similar so that the user can understand why the system is apparently frozen.

There is immense progress with this software, nothing short of 
mind-boggling, albeit at the price of many,many man hours.

I will do more complete testing of the latest version tomorrow.

Kind regards,
willem
