> This was discovered on a client project, and is intermittent. I wrote it off as a device issue until I ran into the same issue today on a Nexus S running CyanogenMod. Here's the issue in question!
> E/WindowManager( 4255): android.view.WindowLeaked: Activity (removed for confidentiality) has leaked window com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow$DecorView@40586158 that was originally added here

> This happens when people are using an Alert in a callback, in this case the reachability API. I'm going to investigate this further, but its the reason there's the infamous "The connection to the server was unsuccessful" is happening.
> Of course, once you kill it and restart the app, the problem goes away, but this doesn't provide a great user experience. I'll assign this to myself.
