My app has stopped working on Marshmellow

Hi All,

I updated to marshmellow on my sony xperia z5 the other day.

I tried to open my app (rain sounds sleep easy) and discovered that it gets stuck on a black screen.

I also noticed in the past week that a lot of people have removed my app from their device!

Although i updated my app a few days ago - with the latest android beta and get object - this issue is happening with a friend using the non beta of 2.5.

Has anyone had issues? This is obviously harming my app and to be honest I am very confused as to why this is happening =(

edit: eventually it says is not responding. Would you like to close it.

Some of my old apps work fine on marshmellow, so it would appear there is a reason why i just get a black screen on one app.. i'll do some testings.

edit:

From initial testings, it would appear webview object is causing my app to crash on android..

Are you building with api 22 you should be ok with 285.1 but all betas are ready to build target 23 and of course this is a deep change made by google, unfortunately we need to follow their lead and update each time there are new api or modifications.


WebView2 Object need several permission now that were not need in previous api

LOCATION; Coarse and Fine
INTERNET

these 3 permission become dangerous, I recommend to read this

Unfourtunatly that doesnt fix it. It still comes up with a black screen and crashes..

If i delete the webview it works fine. I tried reinstalling the object but same issue.

I can remove these elements from my app as they are not essential but they do kind of provide the social element of my app.

edit: I've uploaded my app again to my google playstore account without these features but hope to re introduce if i can get working.

Hello I have the exact same problem as you. My webview object makes my apps crash in the exact same way as yours.

What should we do ?

If someone can submit a bug report to the box, Fernando will take a look at the issue when he is back from the GDC show.

A similar bug has already been reported in the bug tracker, but it is notified as "closed".

I have stripped my mfa and reported the bug with mfa and apk file. I only have the webview object on the mfa which causes a complete crash on marshmellow.

i'm building with API 22 and targeting 2.3 / 2.3.1 / 2.3.2.

Even with all those permissions, the app will still crash in the frame with a webview object...

is there a way to fix this? it is crucial for my game.

Thank you.

Do you have the latest version of Fusion ? The beta 285.2 ?

If so, it is possible that the latest webview was not installed I may send it to you tomorrow.

It is also possible that a line in your code isn't working on Android 6. Look for infinite loops, they can make your app crash.

Do you test your app with "release mode" checked ? If so, try to uncheck it.

My Fusion is R284.10.

The app worked perfectly fine right until i built the Release-version.

Unchecking it makes it work again, too bad i can't upload that version on Google Play!..

So, your app was working in release mode ?

EDIT: Ok I understand the problem is actually coming from the release version.

I have the same issue and I don't know how to fix it for now :/

I have the same problem but only on my Note 4. My old android works fine.

FIXED? I lowered the Target Android to 2.3 and it works fine now. Im still using api 25.
