Issue description
Since Titanium Project upgraded from the 3.1.3.GA TiSDK to the 3.2.0.GA and 3.2.1.GA SDK the splash screen and/or loading indicators flicker when the app is starting up.
Sometimes the indicator is barely visible and other times the screen flickers. That sample code does reproduce the issue. It was verified (the loading indicator was made a bit larger to clarify the issue and uploaded a video here:

Devices affected
Seems to only happen on subset of devices with Gingerbread. i.e Samsung Galaxy Note running Android 2.3.6 and Droid Razr 2.3.6.
Not reproducible on Android 4.0.X though.
Steps to replicate
Launch app at device
Monitor activity indicator. From time to time the issue occurs.
We can cancel the 3.2.3 request. 3.3.0 will work!
