[maemo-developers] QtMobility app shows, hides, shows again at startup

[From: David Talmage]

My newly released PanicButton application [1] behaves strangely at startup. 
When I start the application, it displays its window, then immediately hides 
the window.  In a few but significant number of seconds, it displays its window 
again.  It should display its window only once. Perhaps one of you can help me 
make it behave the right way. I can't be the only one who has ever encountered 
this application behavior.

I've searched for a solution but haven't found the right way to describe it to 
Google or developer.qt.nokia.com.  

This is what PanicButton does at startup in order:

1. Changes the style sheet of its single, large button, so that the text color 
is green.  
2. Creates but does not display a dialog for choosing contacts. 
3. Reads settings from a file.  
4. Creates a QMenuBar, populates it with QActions, and displays it. Each 
QAction has some of its signals connected to slots in PanicButton.
5. Creates a QMessageService and connects one of its signals to one of the 
PanicButton slots.
6. Creates a QGeoPositionInfoSource, connects one of its signals to one of the 
PanicButton slots, and asks it to begin getting updates.
7. Connects some of the contact chooser dialog's signals to PanicButton's 
slots.
8. Connects some of the signals of two QContactFetchRequests to some of 
PanicButton's slots.
9. Starts one of the QContactFetchRequests.
