Often and often, when I exit from WI, it causes system fatal alert/reset. As a palm developer, I know this is most likely caused by stack overflown. I checked the program, only to find the stack size is only 4K. There is a background telephone task running on my device, which my use current app's stack. I strong recommend enlarge the stack size to at least 8k or more. Thanks

To be honest, I changed the stack size to 8K with Palm's Creator, it NEVER collapses! Before that, 10 out of 10 time I got a fatal alert when I quit WI to view a newly received short message.

I'm using a palm cell phone.

I'm using a hongkong (china) made Palm OS4 cell phone. Zircon G18.

When a short message received, the system will call sms app with sublaunch call, which use current's app's stack. it's very easy to get a fatal alert when I played Armageddon even I didn't receive a short message.

Now, A-OK.

By the way, please goto mission sharing forum and view Desert Sand. In that great mission, Andy sometimes got out of control, I'm not sure this is caused by the mission or WI itself. thanks.
