Unable to trace or spawn process

bihihinok commented 6 years ago

Hi everyone !

Great tool, have been working with this for sometime now ( 2 months ).

However before updating to version 12.0.7, I was able to work fine on my lenovo k3 note. However now, only frida-ps works and nothing else.

I tried using the process name from there to run frida-trace on it but in vain. Also both the versions are same on the device and on python. First I installed the python-frida_12.0.7-1.ubuntu-bionic_amd64.deb package but it didn't work so now I installed using pip install -U frida-tools

Output on my terminal :

$uname -a
Linux kali 4.15.0-kali2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.15.11-1kali1 (2018-03-21) x86_64 GNU/Linux

$frida --version
12.0.7
$frida-ps --version
12.0.7
$frida-trace --version
12.0.7

$ frida -U --no-pause -f net.one97.paytm

Problems

Unable to attach to any process
Unable to spawn any process
Once spawned command is issued, device just hangs and have to remove the battery to restart ( thank god I didn't have those irreplaceable battery mobiles )

Only thing that works is frida-ps -Uai

P.S. I am using frida-server-12.0.7-android-arm64 on my device. Thanks.

@oleavr It's very usual problem

@vadimszzz Device/ROM-specific since it's not happening on my end. Let's hope somebody able to reproduce it will eventually volunteer some of their time to investigate it.
