Simulator (montana7xx error)

I recompiled with 3.2.4 and it works with all devices supporting DataField - but only montana7xx gives this error after starting an activity (DataField keeps working anyway):

Error: Symbol Not Found Error
Details: Failed invoking <symbol>
Stack:
Encountered an app crash.

For a test, I compiled the SimpleDataField from samples and it's the same - it's displaying and working just fine, but anyway there is that error in a console after starting an activity (DataField keeps working fine).

My DataFields won't be too much use for that device, so just in case I won't list it as supported, but just letting you know so you can check if anybody else encountered this error.

What this kind of sounds like is that you have the background permission set, but you have no code that's annotated as (:bacxkground). When the app starts, in that case onAppUpdate logic is used, which attempts to load the whole app as a background process, and you see a crash from the background but the app itself still runs.

Turn off permissions you don't really need.

My DataFields have only Positioning, and the SimpleDataField from samples has only DataFieldAlert.

Now, for a test, I edited the SimpleDataField sample, making it as short as possible and without any permission:

using Toybox.Application;
using Toybox.WatchUi;

class SimpleDataField extends Application.AppBase
{ function getInitialView() {return [new DataField()];} }

class DataField extends WatchUi.SimpleDataField
{ function initialize() {SimpleDataField.initialize(); label="Test"; }
    var c=0;
    function compute(info) {c++; return c;}
}

Running it in montana7xx and then starting an activity still gives that error. Other devices run it normally.
