Important Note: Please be warned if you’re having an Android 1.5 phone and want to upgrade from 1.x versions to 2.0.x!! Because of a bug in Android 1.5 (issue #2047), which has been already fixed in Android 1.6, you will need to uninstall your current version (1.x) before installing 2.0.x (actually a clean install must be done). Please make sure you’ve taken backup of your current data (using built-in backup feature of aCar accessible from Import/Export Center) BEFORE uninstalling, otherwise your data will be wiped out as well (a standard Android behavior when uninstalling any app).
Failing to do a clean install of aCar 2.0.x on Android 1.5 phones will lead into Force Close and unusable application, and your data will no longer be accessible!
Please note that clean installs on any Android 1.5+ phone or upgrades on Android 1.6+ phones are quite safe.
