Description

Using GmsCore 0.2.10.19420 from F-Droid, Rosetta Stone for Android (current latest version) starts without problems. After upgrading to GmsCore 0.2.11.202414 from F-Droid, Rosetta Stone appears to crash repeatedly during its startup screen, flashing a white screen every second or two and restarting the startup animation. Downgrading GmsCore to the previous version resolves this.
Attached is the MatLog output during the crashing in case there's anything useful.
