Application does not open on a Motorola Milestone with Android 2.0

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Installing it (both from Market and through website)
2. Clicking the Icon.

What is the expected output?  What happened instead?

I try to start the application, but then it force closes with the message:
Application not responding
The application Geohash Droid (process net.exclaimindustries.geohashdroid) has 
stopped 
unexpectedly. Please try again.

What version of Geohash Droid are you using?  On what phone?

Version 0.7.4 on a Motorola Milestone with Android 2.0.

Please provide any additional information below.

Doesn't have this problem with any other app. I don't know anyone else with a 
Milestone so 
I can't tell if this is a problem on all Milestones or just mine. It worked 
earlier (can't say how 
much earlier since I haven't used it for a while, but maybe a couple of months) 
so maybe it 
is just the latest version that doesn't work. The application had it's own icon 
earlier too, but 
now it is just the standard android app icon.

A Milestone?  Hm... if it's something specific to the Milestone itself, that 
might be 
difficult for me to test (I'm in the US, making it difficult to get a 
Milestone), 
though it doesn't seem to do this on any Droids (the US version of the 
Milestone) 
I've tested.  I'll admit there may be firmware differences between the 
Milestone and 
the Droid, but since I'm not doing anything really hardware-specific, it seems 
odd 
that it'd only affect the Milestone.

But, the application icon reverted to the standard Android app icon?  That's 
the part 
that I'm a bit suspicious about, since I'm not doing anything weird with the 
packages 
or icons on the system.  It sounds like Android's package manager on your phone 
may 
have become corrupted somewhere along the way.  Have you tried uninstalling the 
app 
and reinstalling it?  Or, more exactly, rebooting the phone after uninstalling, 
and 
then reinstalling?

I tried uninstalling, rebooting and then reinstalling but it didn't work. And 
since I thought it sounded 
very plausible that the package manager was corrupt I tried doing a factory 
reset on the phone and 
then reinstalling, but somehow that didn't work either. The icon still doesn't 
display for geohash droid 
and I can't open it. I guess there still could be something wrong with the 
system or package manager on 
my specific phone from the beginning (due to it being android 2.0 perhaps) and 
if no one else has 
reported this problem I guess that's probably likely. Thanks for the help 
anyway and I understand 
completely the difficulty of testing this.

Yeah, I'm afraid at this point, I'm not sure what else I can say.  I can't test 
this 
specifically, nor have I heard anything similar happening to anyone else.  And 
my 
Nexus One runs Android 2.1 and it works properly (the app itself is a 1.6 app 
with 
compatibility to 1.5).

If more people have problems with it, then I might ask around the Android 
groups to 
see if anyone's heard of something similar, but as it stands, I'm out of 
advice.  
Sorry about that.
