Buttons work just fine on android. This is an awful lot of code you've presented us. I don't see anything obviously wrong with it.

I would suggest you create a separate app.js that demonstrates this problem in 50 lines or less. In fact, build one window with both a button and a label. If you can build an example like this where the button doesn't work and the label does, I'll run your code myself and help you figure out what's wrong.

Full disclosure: I expect that if you take my advice and try to build such a simple case, you'll figure out what you're doing wrong. Building minimal cases like this is the best way to master this platform when things don't work as expected. I understand why developers are reluctant to do it -- it's very time-consuming. But it works.
