This is a know glBasic bug/quick which happens when user quit the game while copy and happens too much. Here glbasic should have countinue copy, but its doesn't.

To avoid this bug, use the single assets copy I did using the java communication method, howover it's can been more advanced system that way I did. I did that in Greedy Mouse and its much better assets copy system and its ony copy changed files again after a update.

I know, this is an issue with Android+GLBasic but it can be fixed.

When a GLBasic app starts for the first time on Android it copies all files in the "media" folder to the Android user data folder. Snake Slider has about 20MB of graphics files so this can take a while to copy. Android OS will detect that the app is not responding (same as on Windows) and will show a message "App not responding, close app?" or something like that. If the user closes the app during this first time start-up, the copying of files is cancelled and will not resume the next time the app is started. So then you have with half of the graphics files missing.
I think you could make an API call between each file copy to let the virtual machine that the app is running. Something like DoEvents in Visual Basic, but in Java. There must be a way to update the screen or something to let to know the app is running.
The partial copy error could be solved using a value in a configuration file, like setting a CopiedAll=1 at the end of the process. If you cancel the copy process and start the app next time, the value will be 0 and the files are copied again.

V11 does not lock and will display a loading animation. Works fine, tested yesterday with a huge media set on a slow tablet.
