Description:
- when loading a new article after a search - should a text or imessage arrive while loading is in progress,
(2) when using a hotlink within an article to load a referenced page and a text message arrives while loading is in progress;
in both cases the device promptly hangs after the text arrival notification tone and cannot be recovered without completely powering down the device and restarting, then selecting the APP again.
Note that I find the load times to be very slow irrespective of whether it is the carrier or WiFi.
Clearly the slow load time will increase the probability of texts and page loads occuring concomitantly.
What that should say is that the Wikipedia app hangs on incoming messages
during load and the only way out of it is to exit using the "home" button,
all touch screen function is disabled. This leaves the device operating but
the Wikipedia app remains in the "hung" state and this can be verified by
simply trying to start it again. Only a complete power down and power up
cycle will get the app operational again.
