Description

We cannot retrieve the property value set in tiapp.xml using Ti.App.properties API even though it is documented in the WIKI. http://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/guides/tiapp.xml+and+timodule.xml+Reference#tiapp.xmlandtimodule.xmlReference-Applicationproperties Step1: Copy the following code in app.js 
Titanium.UI.setBackgroundColor('white');

var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow();
alert(Ti.App.Properties.getString("appstate"));
win.open();
Step2: Add the following line to tiapp.xml DEV Step3: Run the app, and you can see the alert message is null.

    iOS Fix seems to prevent retrieving existing Ti.App.Properties not found within tiapp.xml. Removing both calls to new loadUserDefaults function in TiApp.mm seems to fix that, but that leaves this ticket still an issue.
