display doesn't update correctly in some cases when returning to the program after exiting.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. While playing, hit o for open.  The game will ask for a direction.
2. Hit a non-direction key (for instance, g).  The game will complain and give 
a diagram of the valid direction keys
3. Press the back button, which will exit the program
4. Go back into the program and the diagram is no longer displayed but the 
controls behave as if it is.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When returning to the program it should be in the same state as when I left.  
That means that the key diagram should be displayed.  That said, it would 
probably make the most sense if you could capture these sorts of modal 
information screens into dialogs, dismissible with the back button or an "ok" 
button or something like that.  Whatever the standard Android behavior is.  
When using my phone my automatic response when faced with something like that 
direction key diagram is to hit the back button to return to what I was doing 
before it came up.  It's unintuitive to have the back button exit the program.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v1.2.5 on Android 2.2 on an AT&T Nexus One

Yeah, I can see that there is room for improvement there. Simply making the 
Back button work like Esc or something if a menu/message screen is up would 
probably fix most of the issue, though the user would still always be able to 
leave the app with the Home key, so the redraw bug would still need to be 
addressed separately.
