I had a production APK in the Play store, which was using a third party native library. I had 3 architectures in the jniLibs directory, namely armeabi, armeabi-v7a and x86.
I recently updated the build and removed the library using the native code (as I don't need that anymore). However, to my surprise, I observed random crashes on 64 bit devices, immediately after updating the application.
Following are the primary devices affected:
- All 64 bit devices running Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) - Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, HTC One M9, LG G4, Moto X Pure Edition
- Samsung Galaxy S6 series running Android 5.1 (Lollipop)
And here is the crash trace on Android 6.0:
