Multiple Instances

[olajideo...@gmail.com]

App creating multiple instances.

Samsung and HTC device.

Test Case:
Open app, play music.
Place or receive a call.
Open app from the app drawer
New instance is opened.

[Greg Allensworth]

In your android manifest, make sure to set launchMode:"singleTask" on
the <activity> element.

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html

If you're using Phonegap Build, this is a known problem of PGB: they do
not set this launchMode, so you'll always start a new instance, lose
your in-app state, etc. (if PGB has changed this, please correct me!)

Thank You.
