Force Close on startup

I'm trying to run the default sample app on an HTC Dream Android device, but it's force closing on startup. I'm using the 1.0 Titanium Developer and the 1.0.0 SDK. I have the Android 1.6, API 4, Rev 2 SDK installed along with Google APIs API 4, Rev 2.

The device itself is rooted and running Cyanogenmod 4.2.14.1.

Here's the log trace from the device:

Josh, we haven't made any effort to support the Cyanogenmod'd devices. Would you mind putting that trace into a pastie. It's hard to read through it all run together like that. What I did see implies that I can't find app.js. I am using file://android_asset/ to locate the resources in the application. Do you know if Cyanogenmod supports the URL correctly?

Hi Don, Sorry about that messy paste. Here's the pastie link for the trace: http://pastie.org/863981

I don't know if Cyanogenmod supports the URL correctly or not. Is there a way I can confirm that for you?

I just tried disabling Analytics in tiapp.xml and managed to run the sample app successfully. I'll try some more complicated apps and see how it goes.
