[mono-android] Background thread kills application

[Jeremy A. Kolb - ARA/NED]

Unfortunately logcat isn't telling me anything. I see

10-22 16:15:57.759 I/ActivityManager(  233): START {act=android.intent.action.MAIN cat=[android.intent.category.HOME] flg=0x10000000 cmp=com.android.launcher/com.android.launcher2.Launcher} from pid 6642
10-22 16:15:57.809 I/ActivityManager(  233): Process MinefieldManagement.MinefieldManagement (pid 6642) has died.
10-22 16:15:57.809 I/WindowManager(  233): WIN DEATH: Window{415962f8 MinefieldManagement.MinefieldManagement/minefieldmanagement.MainActivity paused=true}

How long is "too long"? Which Android version are you seeing this on? Which target device?

Usually that's indicative of a crash somewhere. Try looking at logcat directly instead of using the IDE's Application Output window and see if there are any unhandled exceptions.
