Perhaps the problem is that in your definition you didn't have any
keywords defined as completed states, and thus there are no "done
keywords".  I couldn't figure this out in a few minutes.  Try adding "|"
before DONE in your example.  It could be that some parts of org but not
all treat the last keywords as a done keyword when there is no |.

(Of course org-mobile-push should give a better error message if this is
the issues.)
