Android AutoCompleteTextView Crash on Item Selection (only on HTC Thunderbolt)

Question

Have been getting a really weird error recently from an android app I am developing.

Part of the app has a Map view with a list of locations displayed as an AutoCompleteTextView. On every device and emulator I tested this function performs as expected. However, whenever a user with an HTC Thunderbolt phone (running 2.3.4) tries to select an item in the list, the application crashes.

Here is my stack trace from the Bug Reports I have received:

Any ideas?

Here is what I get when doing Autocompletetextview on Thunderbolt. The white suggestion fields only show suggestions if you press on them. So it seems actv and Thunderbolt is a bad combination.
