-------------------------+-------------------
 I'm trying to use Orbot on two Android devices. One is a Nexus 9 running
 stock Android 5.0.2, and the other is a Nexus 6P running the nightly build
 of CyanogenMod 13 (based on Android 6.0.1), built 12/13/2015. Orbot
 15.0.1-RC-3-PIE (Tor 0.2.6.10) is installed from F-Droid on both devices.

 When I start Orbot on either of these devices, I get the same exception -
 something about not being able to find tor.mp3. Here's the log, which is
 identical on both devices:

 {{{

 }}}

 I suspect what's happening is that both of these devices have newer
 architectures and for some reason tor.mp3 is getting put in some
 architecture-specific location. But I'm really not enough of an expert to
 tell for sure.
