can't get android image_transport working on android phone

Greetings all,

I am currently trying to make an android phone transmit a picture to a rosmaster pc both connected to the same wifi network. It seems to me that androidimagetransport tutorial does that to some extend. Therefore I installed ros on my ubuntu 11.10, downloaded the tutorial code from the hg repository, run rosmake --thread=1 on it and got no errors, imported it in eclipse and got no errors on the project. At this point I exported it to an .apk packet to install it on my android phone. The installation goes well but the application crashes at starting point every time I try to run it. At the same time, I run roscore on the pc and set my ROSMASTERURI thanks to : export ROSMASTERURI=http://rim-Satellite-A200:11311/. I can't seem to figure out what is missing for the application to run, could you please help me figure it out

Thanks in advance

Rim

Can you plug in the android device, do "adb logcat -c", run the app and then do "adb logcat" and post the results here?
