1. there is a bug that is relatively new. it wasnt happening months ago, but does so now once in a while, heres what happens:
On my phone I load game. It doesnt go to the main menu (as i've had the app open), but goes to the Planet Screen ive had before (Palace, Stardock, etc). I buy stuff at exchanges, do my recruiting, whatever, and then leave planet. Instead of screen flash -> kicking me out to Navigation Screen, the screen flashes and puts me right back into Planet Screen. What's more, all the items i purchased before at the exchange are not bought, it's as if it resets again to the initial load, and all my actions were wiped.
This has happened many times. I do not know if my recruited crew or contracts also reset, and i dont know if this is an issue that only happens when the game has been idle in memory for a very long time (i think each time its happened ive had the phone idle for a loooong time. cant be sure if this is relevant or anectodal. also im on ICS).
I may not have explained this well...

ICS sure is fun. I'm trying to figure out how the new version of the OS can get two copies of "SingleTop" applications running. I put in a report with Google -- we'll see if they get back to me My testing continues, thankfully I have an ICS device to test with now ... even though I have not been able to make what you describe occur. What devices are you running?

This issue is caused by settings on the device.
There are a few different device settings that can cause your Android applications to have issues with saving state. The most common one is a task-killer or other software that interferes with the normal function of the OS.
The next most common cause is the developer option "Don't keep actives" or "Quit Applications" and variants of those options on various devices.
