Description
Version: 1.18 onwards / Alpha 292 onwards
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to a sub
- Scrolling posts work fine
- Go to comments of any post
- Start scrolling down
- Crashes.
- Not at a particular comment. Timing and location seems random, but it always crashes while scrolling (not when left idle).
- RR automatically returns to post list on the last sub
- Go to any comments list
- Scroll
- Crashes again.
I could only find one other instance of someone reporting a similar issue, and they (coincidentally?) also happen to be running crDroid.
After tracing it back a bit, it looks like the last version that worked without crashing for me was Alpha 291.
I captured the logcat after 2 consecutive crashes on A292, showing segfaults, which may or may not be helpful. Do you have a particular list of commits between A291 and 292?
Thanks.
