Avidan Chen commented on CB-554:
--------------------------------

Well, it wasn't there when I was running 1.2.0. And nothing in my code changed. I simply upgraded to 1.6.1. I also upgraded jQuery mobile to 1.1.0, but I did that prior to upgrading phonegap and I thoroughly tested it without any issues. Only after updating phonegap it started happening.

By the way, I didn't use a splashscreen in 1.2.0. nor do I use it now because I need the ability to hide it after I'm done caching pages (as far as I could tell, hiding the splash screen on demand in javascript only works in iOS). Instead, the background image of my first html page serves as the splash screen, and when I'm done caching I just switch to the next page. 
Now, I did try to use a splashscreen in 1.6.1 just to see if it helps, but there was no change. 

After further investigating this issue, I noticed it happens even before deviceready fires. What's wierd about it is that it doesn't happen all the time. Most of the times I start the app, but not every time.

> After upgrading from Phonegap 1.2.0, there's a noticeable white flash (maybe half a second in Android 2.3.5, in 4.0.4 even longer than that) before displaying the first html page.
> This happens before the "deviceready" event fires. I'm also using jQuery Mobile 1.1.0.
> Again, prior to updating to 1.6.1 it didn't happen.
> This happens only in Android as far as I can tell.
