What version of Xamarin.Forms? This looks like an issue that was already fixed in master.

Do you have any more info about the state change thats happening here? A fragment is being destroyed and knowing what is going on in the app is going to be essential to figuring out whats going on. Java.Lang.Error tells us basically nothing. AppCenter has no other info?

[paleicikas]

The same for me (latest XF). I think this is happening at point of killing an app (could't be able to reproduce).

[PureWeen]

@pauloortins can you try the latest nightly build see if you're having the same issue

https://blog.xamarin.com/try-the-latest-in-xamarin-forms-with-nightly-builds/

Also what Jason says still would be helpful

Do you have any more info about the state change thats happening here? A fragment is being destroyed and knowing what is going on in the app is going to be essential to figuring out whats going on. Java.Lang.Error tells us basically nothing. AppCenter has no other info?

It's hard for us to locate without knowing how you are using the scrollviewrenderer

[pauloortins]

This is the only info that app center give to me.

But I guess that it's in the following flow:

1. Home Page
2. Open a Detail Page
3. Open a page with a ListView
4. Open another page with a ListView
5. Pop to 4
6. Pop to 1 using Navigation.RemovePage and then PopAsync.

Locally I can reproduce in Debug mode but not in Release mode.

[PureWeen]

@pauloortins which page has the scrollview?

And can you paste the XAML for that page?

[tbaggett]

I see a slightly different path leading to this issue, but it ends up with the same error location. Providing info in case it helps. XF 2.5.1.527436 used in this case. Currently testing next release that uses 3.1.0.697729. This issue occurs primarily on API 26 (71.4%), but is also seen on API 24 and 25 (14.3% each).

[mfeingol]

I'm seeing a very similar issue here with a Xamarin Forms app on Android. Using latest shipped Xamarin Forms (3.1.0.697729).

It's difficult to reproduce, but I can confirm I sometimes see it on Android 8.0 when navigating using the hamburger menu. The latest one I observed involved navigation from a tabbed page to a non-tabbed page.

@PureWeen: are you interested in the XAML for the previous page or the new page?

Here's the crash report from App Center:

[PureWeen]

@mfeingol the Xaml would be useful or a short video even just to get an idea of your structures
I'm curious about where in the hierarchy your ScrollView lives and how the parent page is being swapped out

The problem I've seen can manifest in a lot of ways depending on how logically someone is swapping out pages. Like during what stage in the lifecycle etc....

If you could repro that would be helpful or if you have something you can email me shneuvil at microsoft that would be kept private that'd be useful

[PureWeen]

@mfeingol thank you for the project. I'll see if I can get it to reproduce the issue and then update the issue here with what I can find out

[PureWeen]

@mfeingol I'm unfortunately still not having much luck recreating the issue

• I was able to get the tracks zip you sent me loaded
• I tested on a couple different emulators (api 23, 26)
• I tested on a really cheap Moto device I have (api 22) but it just crashes with an OutOfMemoryException

I've clicked around a bunch in the emulators and haven't been able to get the above exception.
Can you update to the latest forms 3.2 and then if you're able to get a semi-consistent way to recreate that would be useful. It'd be also useful to know the device you are using and what API

[mfeingol]

Thanks for the repro attempts, @PureWeen. This isn't something I'm seeing myself on a regular basis either, so I don't have any further insight on how best to repro.

I will note I do get the occasional crash report for this. E.g., the two most recent instances in AppCenter are:

Xperia\xe2\x84\xa2 E4 -- Android 4.4.4 -- 4 weeks ago
LG Stylo3 -- Android 7.0 -- 1 week ago

[brittonbeckham]

Wanted to also report my experience with this crash. We recently updated our app to use XF 3.2 and we are experiencing this error on:

Galaxy S7 Edge
Android 8.0.0 (R16NW)

Stack Trace looks similar to some of the above. This appears to be happening in the following scenarios:

• Backing out of the app using the hard back key
• Signing out of the app, which resets all the app pages that were referenced in static props (see code below). The signout process calls AppPages.Reset() then the app runs code that eventually calls AppPages.AppRoot property -- this news up the Root page and other pages automatically.

Forgot to mention that we are only seeing this on the aforementioned phone so far (with very limited testing), but not on my own personal Pixel 2.

[samhouts]

We made some changes to the order that we dispose renderers in 3.3. Are you able to update and see if it helps reduce the incidence of this crash? Thanks!

[mfeingol]

I haven't seen a reported instance of this since releasing a version of the app with XF 3.3. But time will tell.

[OlegKlym]

I have this crash in 3.3 and 3.4 XF when I turned off an app to tray and resumed it
Java.Interop.JavaLocationException -Unable to activate instance of type Droid.Renderers.PageRenderer from native handle

[modplug]

This is our stack trace for the same bug.
We are running on 3.1 since we're stuck waiting for another bug to be fixed in XF iOS before we can upgrade. I just wanted to paste the stack trace here in case it helps with the investigation.
It happens after the app has been minimized to the app tray, and then loaded again

@modplug

We are running on 3.1 since we're stuck waiting for another bug to be fixed in XF iOS before we can upgrade.

What bug?

And can you provide a repro or send me your app privately? shneuvil at microsoft.com

[modplug]

The bug I was referring to is: NavigationPage.TitleIcon no longer centered. Although it is marked as fixed I can't find it included in a Xamarin Forms version.

Unfortunately I can't provide a repro since it's a commercial app :/

[samhouts]

@modplug #4138 should be fixed in 3.4.0, FYI.

[samhouts]

@OlegKlym Are you using a custom page renderer?

[modplug]

@samhouts As far as I can see there hasn't been a relase of 3.4.0 since the fix was included

[PureWeen]

It'll be part of the SR for 3.4.0

[modplug]

Ok thanks @PureWeen . Any ETA for the SR?

[StephaneDelcroix]

@PureWeen so can we close this ?

[PureWeen]

No @StephaneDelcroix the conversation with @modplug was about something holding him back from upgrading to 3.4 to test if 3.4 fixes this bug for them

[samhouts]

Since we haven't heard from you in more than 30 days, we hope this issue is no longer affecting you. If it is, please reopen this issue and provide the requested information so that we can look into it further. Thank you!

[georgethms10]

@samhouts Is this issue actually solved, i am using xf 3.2 and i am getting this error frequently in my map renderer. Any fix for this issue

[transis2]

Same error for me too.

XF 4.1

[StinkyTowel]

Just released a new version of our app with XF 4.1.0.709244 and seeing this as well. So far only on Galaxy J7 Pop running Android 8.1.

Also seeing a crash report on _md51558244f76c53b6aeda52c8a337f2c37.ScrollViewRenderer.draw_. We'll continue to monitor before creating an issue.

[GalaxiaGuy]

On the off chance this is useful to anyone, I get the following stack trace:

[EmilAlipiev]

XF 4.4 version and problem still exists. It can be reproduced mostly during the screen orientation change.

[thisisthekap]

@samhouts As Xamarin.Forms 4.4 is affected according to @EmilAlipiev (what we can confirm on our side due to app center crash reports), this issue should be reopened.

[samhouts]

@EmilAlipiev @thisisthekap I can reopen this issue, but without a reproduction project, we have no way to know how to resolve the issue or how to verify if/when we have fixed it. Can you please supply a reproduction? Thanks!

[PureWeen]

@EmilAlipiev @thisisthekap can you post your exact stack traces?

This issue has like 5 different stack traces that are all probably related to different things

[thisisthekap]

@PureWeen Happy to help:

I'm seeing this stack on our app, when it is redrawing some content on the page. don't know what it is doing yet, but have seen this crash twice today on my testing, and have seen the occasional crash from end users.
All the affected users were on android 9.
XF 4.2.0.910310

App freezes and gets terminated after some time.

[MitchBomcanhao]

Using a custom LabelRenderer like this
public class CustomLabelRenderer : LabelRenderer { public CustomLabelRenderer (Android.Content.Context context) : base(context) { } }
it appears to stop the crashes

[thisisthekap]

@MitchBomcanhao I am not sure, if your bug is related to the one originally posted in this issue. The stack traces seem to be quite different. Do you have any insights on why these issues are connected or even the same?
