**Operating system or device:** Android 4.0.3 ; LG P700 **Issue description** …(what happened, and what was expected): When some scenes are loaded by script, the Android app crashes on startup. The phone must be rebooted. - If you run only the scene it works nice also on Android. - If you instance the scene by editor the app works nice too. - It crashes only if the scene is loaded in a script. **Steps to reproduce:** - Click on the example project link. (wait a minute hubiC seems slow on my Firefox) - Check the zip file and download it. The poisoned scene is "PausePopup2.tscn" - Connect an Android device. - Run the project on Android. - Epileptic persons should switchoff the device immediately. **Link to minimal example project** (optional but very welcome): http://ovh.to/KsqY4Xb

The phone was updated to Android 4.1 today, but the issue stills here.

I need a workaround. My project makes no sense without a touch screen and some scenes need to be loaded from script.

One finding: with “load” instead of “preload” the project runs but the scene is completely missing.

Can you give some logcat output?

I’m not accustomed to use adb sorry if it’s not as precise as intended.

Here some of the last lines copied from adb logcat output.

PC allows to use paths without " res:// " but not Android.

The corrected paths fixed the problem on my little example project, but not in my real project !

I changed the main scene for every scene of the project and run it on Android, to find the broken scene. And I threw it to fix the issue. I didn’t really understand the problem but I can work now.
Android needs to be more rigorous than on PC.
