[guardian-dev] onion icon showing when orbot isnt actually running

barbra blmack at gmail.com
Wed Oct 9 14:36:44 EDT 2013 

It has been reproduced again.

Orbot was manually started (both straight from Orbot, and then from Martus
passed through to Orbot in another instance). It was *not* manually
stopped, so it should of been running. It wasn't, yet the onion icon was
still showing. We realized this, after opening Orbot and it actually wasn't
active. I've paste some Orbot logs below from the day, if that is useful.

Thanks
Barbra
