I had a similar problem when trying to launch an application that took some time processing. I found that for the BlackBerry OS my app was not responding anymore (while, in fact, it was just processing a lot of data).

The BlackBerry OS seems to have a type of watchdog process that is resposible for killing applications that do not respond to events for some time. So, I've solved this by creating a background thread responsible for handling events from time to time (calling setAcceptEvents() from Application class).

Hope it can help you guys.
