Hi Have just updated to 3.3.6 and the new android 4 mode. Was a bit nervous but it worked first time with a simple getting started sketch. Quite impressed!
But now I wish to run a large project that was working fine with android mode 3, but it now throws this console message after successful build and installation ... it throws as the sketch starts on my phone. Can anyone tell me how to fix this ... what is a Theme.AppCompat theme (or descendant) ?
Many thanks Mark
