Android 3.6.2.19250 on Samsung S3 Galaxy smartphone

Tried the airfield explorer feature and only get a blank screen after a few seconds and the message "Skydemon has stopped working". 
Program exits. Repeatable issue.

Can anyone else observe this stated behaviour?

It works on my Samsung Galaxy S3 with the same SD version. It could depend on the versions of Google Earth/Maps (?) and the Android system?

That is interesting - I will have to investigate further. I always allow auto updating of the apps etc. on my Samsung Galaxy S3 so it is unlikely to be an old version of something.
I just tried it again now for a flight I did yesterday - same thing happens when I "explore" EGMD - Lydd. Even the "report problem to SD" popup is only displayed for 1/2 second and exits completely. Is there anything specific for me to check?

Well, this is strange. Today I have managed to get the airfield explorer to work on my Samsung S3 on perhaps two out of 10 occasions (testing functionality).
It seems to fail where I suspect it is about to display the airfield image.
I have managed to submit a few SD error reports but not sure if they contain any useful information.

Is there anything I can check on my Samsung? I am not aware of any other issues with my phone and the rest of SD works perfectly.
