<p>
This build fixes some galleries for the existing 2016-06 wikis. Unfortunately, the other galleries can only be fixed in the next HTML dump: 2016-07 and beyond.

</h3>
<p>
There are basically two types of fixes:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Show error when downloading</b>: A user reported intermittent problems with download central: <a href="https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/issues/63" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/issues/63</a> . A little later in the week, I discovered archive.org can sometimes drop a connection after a few hours. In these cases, XOWA would just stop without any indication. This version prints status messages to the screen, and also allows the user to resume
</li>
<li>
<b>Android would sometimes time out</b>: Android sometimes stops XOWA while downloading. This version allows XOWA to keep Android awake (WAKE_LOCK) until downloads finish.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id=".28Android.29_Multiple_fixes_for_severe_crashes">(Android) Multiple fixes for severe crashes</span>
</h3>
<p>
There were a number of fixes for crashes in uncommon scenarios. Most of these involved switching SD cards, or deleting wikis outside XOWA. The crash was bad enough such that XOWA would not work unless the Storage files were cleared (or XOWA was reinstalled).
</p>
<p>
These are fixed in this version. For more info, see the <a href="http://xowa.org/home/wiki/Change_log.html" id="xolnki_11" title="Change log">Change log</a>

<li>
<b>Table of contents</b>: I did more work on the TOC, but wasn't able to integrate it for this release. It should be part of the next one.
</li>
<li>
<b>Redlinks for HTTP Server</b>: This also didn't make it into this release.
</li>
<li>
<b>Wikis</b>: I'm working on French next and adding them to Download Central.
