All release channels crashing on open, on Android 12 beta (including Pixel, Samsung OneUI, and OnePlus OxygenOS betas) #18667

Closed meejle closed 2 years ago

meejle commented 2 years ago

Description

Whelp, this one is weirdly specific.

I'm on a clean install of OneUI 4.0 Beta 2 (Android 12) on my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra (Exynos). Build SP1A.210812.003.G998BXXU3ZUJ1.

I've tried installing Brave, Brave Beta, and Brave Nightly.

I get the initial screen that asks whether I want to allow diagnostic reporting or whatever. When I press the button to continue, the app crashes and dumps me back at the home screen.

I'm not necessarily asking for a fix, just posting in case it's something you guys will need to be aware of before OneUI releases later this year. ☺️

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install OneUI 4.0 Beta 2 as a clean install on a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra (Exynos)
  2. Download Brave
  3. Try to set it up

Actual result

It crashes.

Expected result

It does not crash.

Issue reproduces how often

Every time.

Version/Channel Information:

Um, idk. I tried downloading an older version from APKMirror but it also crashed.

Device details

Brave version

1.30.87, 1.31.74 beta, 1.32.58 nightly, and 1.30.86.

Website problems only

Additional information

N/A

Just saw this on Reddit, maybe it's an Android 12 issue in general?

(The Reddit OP is using the OxygenOS beta.)

ETA: Another Redditor commented saying he's having the same problem on a Google Pixel 3 running the Android 12 beta.

ETA2: Also Pixel 4A on Android 12 beta.

ETA3: Another Pixel 4A user on Android 12 beta 5. https://www.reddit.com/r/brave_browser/comments/q8grjv/brave_browser_not_working_on_pixel_4a_running/

This issue doesn't happen with other chromium based browsers but only on Brave browser. I'm thinking it's a Brave specific issue and not an Android 12 issue. Bromite and Kiwi browsers have no such issues.

Tested on Oxygen OS 12 beta 1 on a OnePlus 9 Pro.

Sorry, yeah, I meant "an issue with Brave on Android 12 in general", rather than "an issue with Android 12 in general." I could've been clearer. 👀

But still good information to help narrow it down. I'm pretty sure Chrome is disabled on my phone, and Firefox is my other go-to after Brave, so I hadn't tested it with another Chromium browser.

TriStaRvOiD commented 2 years ago

Brave is crashing for me as well. On startup. I'm on • Android 12 (stable) • arm64, Poco F1(beryllium), a custom rom with Pixel 5 fingerprint • Brave stable 1.30.87

meejle commented 2 years ago

This is now working (for me) ONLY on Nightly, version 1.33.19.

Today's new Beta is still crashing.

Alexmoto714 commented 2 years ago

Same issue is happening to me as well on all builds

Phone Type: Pixel 3a XL Stable: 1.30.87 Dev: 1.32.76 Nightly: 1.33.22

eturk1 commented 2 years ago

Official Android 12 release can't run any version of Brave app.

I'm on Pixel 4XL / nightly 1.33.29

Reports of crash on many Pixel devices: https://community.brave.com/t/android-12-pixel-3-xl-crash/292560/10

srirambv commented 2 years ago

Don't see any crash on release/beta/nightly on my Pixel device. Only ran into #18516 when manually restarted the device

jasoncavett commented 2 years ago

Seeing the same.

Pixel 3A Android 12 (upgrade, not fresh) Brave 1.30.87 - fresh install off Play Store

haukist commented 2 years ago

Nightly (v1.33.22) is working on my Pixel 6.

stmuk commented 2 years ago

I was running Brave fine on a Pixel 4a upgraded to Android 12, but it crashes on a new Pixel 6.

eturk1 commented 2 years ago

update: 1.33.32 Oct 12 nightly suddenly works today

strange because it would not load before today. Was there some Brave serve side change allowing it to work?

full release version 1.30.87 still crashes on open

GalaxyLittlepaws commented 2 years ago

I'm using a Samsung S21, Running Android 12 One UI 4.0 Beta 2.

I installed Brave for the first time on my device and it instantly crashes. Once it let me choose to opt-in or out of diagnostic reporting, but once I passed that it was back to crashing instantly on start.

srirambv commented 2 years ago

Maybe fixed with https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/10660

SergeyZhukovsky commented 2 years ago

The fix is included in Nightly 1.33.31. It's going to be uplifted to beta and stable in a few days. Could you check on latest Nightly?

kjozwiak commented 2 years ago

Closing as this will most likely be resolved by https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/10660 and uplifted into 1.32.x & 1.31.x via https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/10720 & https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/10721.

Looks like there's several confirmations that https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/10660 fixed Nightly as per https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/18667#issuecomment-951888802 & https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/18667#issuecomment-952309407.

We'll try to get this into 1.31.x (current release channel) ASAP.

srirambv commented 2 years ago

Verification passed on Pixel 3 with Android 12 running 1.31.88 x64 build.

GeriYatola commented 2 years ago

@srirambv Build 1.31.88 now crashes at launch on Oneplus 8 running Android 11 build OP8_O2_BETA_12. Tried update and clean install. Freezes on launch after update just showing the address bar. On clean install welcome splash screen is shown, but the UI doesn't respond.

meejle commented 2 years ago

I just installed 1.31.88 Release from APKMirror (I guess it hasn't "rolled out" to me yet on the Play Store... 🙄) and the crash is fixed for me! Thank you guys.

meejle commented 2 years ago

Ahh, nope, scratch that. It worked for a little while, then froze, and now it opens but won't do anything. I either get JUST the splash screen, or JUST the omnibar. Back to Firefox I go... 😭

umbraesoulsbane commented 2 years ago

Not sure if this is supposed to be fixed or not. Originally was not having an issue on P4 XL nor 6 Pro. Then on Pro Brave wouldnt resume. Reinstalling doesn't fix.

Guess it's time to switch browsers since I can't use Brave at all now.

InfiniteInsight commented 2 years ago

This is still a problem on Pixel 5, android 12.

Brave 1.31.90

Only get the splash screen, then omni bar.. Then a crash.

Pretty annoying. I've got like $25 worth of bat that I haven't been able to link to a wallet because it's not 25 bat yet. Something tells me I'm going to lose a years worth of bat.

Stumblinbear commented 2 years ago

Getting this on Android 11, Brave 1.31.90.

dee-kryvenko commented 2 years ago

1.49.90 fixed it for me on Android 12 Pixel 3XL. I am unhappy though with how long time it took them to push the change from the moment the fix was merged. This is huge emergency showstopper - browser didn't work AT ALL for weeks and they seem to just keep their usual release schedule. This is simply unacceptable. Glad it is now fixed - but as I am currently currently trying to evaluate Brave browser - it didn't give me confidence these guys are doing business seriously.

You have to remember that even if Brave pushed this out right away that Google delays pushing out apps in the Play Store and not necessarily Brave.

dee-kryvenko commented 2 years ago

As a user, why should I care? How's having my browser not work for WEEKS can be ever justified? How come it was never tested on Android 12 betas?

Sorry to bother everyone with this, but still happens at 1.35.103

Was that commit applied to 1.35.x ?

SergeyZhukovsky commented 2 years ago

@waltercool yes the fix has been applied. Could you help us figure out your case?

waltercool commented 2 years ago

@SergeyZhukovsky

SergeyZhukovsky commented 2 years ago

@waltercool from the call stack you provided I see it crashes on accessing GoogleApiAvailability.getInstance() inside chromium sources. I wonder does stock Chrome crashes as well with them disabled?

waltercool commented 2 years ago

Let me try and test today later, but I have installed Ungoogled-Chromium and does not crash.

waltercool commented 2 years ago

@SergeyZhukovsky Under Chrome for Android, no problems.

SergeyZhukovsky commented 2 years ago

did you test in Chrome with Google Play Services disabled as well?

waltercool commented 2 years ago

@SergeyZhukovsky Yes
