Android ANR in "android.app.ResourcesManager" - android

Recently i see a quite significant increase of ANRs in the Google Play Console for my app. There are reports for different types of causes but they have one thing in common:
Both the main thread and my worker thread are blocked and at least one of them is always blocked while accessing a method from "android.app.ResourcesManager"
Example 1:
"main" prio=5 tid=1 Blocked
at android.app.ResourcesManager.getAdjustedDisplay (ResourcesManager.java:353)

...
The main thread tries to get the display size for measurement using the "windowManager.getDefaultDisplay().getSize()" method (for Pre Android R devices). The worker thread tries to get the Icon of an Application using a LauncherActivityInfo.
Example 2:
"main" prio=5 tid=1 Blocked

at org.n277.lynxlauncher.visual.c.d.v (SourceFile:1)
at org.n277.lynxlauncher.visual.c.d.u (SourceFile:3)
...
Again, the main thread tries to get the display size for measurement, but this time using windowManager.getCurrentWindowMetrics(). The worker thread again tries to get the Icon of an Application using a LauncherActivityInfo.
Example 3:
Exactly the same as example 2, but there is another generic thread stuck with the very same trace as the worker thread.
For me it really looks like there is some sort of deadlock when accessing the "android.app.ResourcesManager" class from multuple threads.
I suspect that also "WindowManagerImpl.getCurrentBounds" is accessing the ResourcesManager although it is not shown explicidly. However, this did not happen before the last update and i have not changed anything regarding the threading. The only thing that comes into my mind is that i updated several dependencies:
buildToolsVersion from 30.0.0 to 30.0.2
com.android.billingclient:billing from 3.0.3 to 4.0.0
androidx.appcompat:appcompat from 1.2.0 to 1.3.0
androidx.recyclerview:recyclerview from 1.1.0 to 1.2.1
What i suspect is thas it is causing problems now when the Resources are accessed from multiple threads simultaneously. Moving the App Icon loading into the main thread however does not seem wise to me as this would clog this thread easily. For the "LauncherActivityInfo.getIcon" method it is clear that it has to access the resources to get the icon of the app (although not the resources of the app the method is called from but from the app from which the icon should be loaded). However many other tasks are also performed in the worker thread and many of the called API methods could also access the resources internally even though it is not obvious.
Has anyone else experiencef problems of this kind? (after an update of one of the above mentioned dependencies).
Or has anyone found a workaround/solution to this specific ANR?

Understanding .trace file of an Android application

My application gives ANR popup. To find out the reason I have generated a sample.trace file using this line:
Debug.startMethodTracing("sample");
in onCreate method of my activity, and I have added this line to stop tracing to the onDestroy method of the activity:
Debug.stopMethodTracing();
I get the sample.trace file after I destroy the activity. But when I review the file I do not understand it. As I learn there is an online tool which is Perfetto.
However when I open the file in there, it shows blank page while I am expecting some UI.
As a result I need to understand the file and find out the problems that cause the ANR issue but I do not know how to do.
This is a piece of my sample.trace file :

Thanks in advance.
As I learned I can use Android Studio to see which process is taking more place on cpu and etc.
The only thing that I need to do is opening Profiler window then click the + button and Load from file. Then it will show the statistics of the .trace file.
Thanks!

React-Native, only Android, no firebase: objects are not valid as a React child (found: object with keys {$$typeof, type, key, ref, props, _owner,

I'm building a React Native 0.57 app, which works fine on IOS but fails on Android with the following error:
Objects are not valid as a React child (found: object with keys {$$typeof, type, key, ref, props, _owner, _store}). If you meant to render a collection of children, use an array instead.

I searched on the Internet et SO (of course), and everybody is talking about firebase which I'm not using.
As far as I remember, with RN 0.56 all was working fine, and since the upgrade to 0.57, this error started to occur.
The workaround is to enable the debugger ... but the release is suffering the same issue.
The issue is happening in the simulator and on the real device.
As the app is working on IOS, I guess this is coming from the android project.
How can I investigate this issue?
UPDATE
I found out that adding import 'core-js' to the top of the index.js file of the app is avoiding the error.
This core-js is a dependency of many package, like react-native itself.
Why is this import solving the issue and why do I have to do it, especially if the iOS version works fine?

Recurring crash on SimpleSettableFuture.java in ReactNative

There is a crash that is showing up repeatedly in Firebase crash reporting for my React Native Android app. However, I am at a loss as to what would be causing it, as the stack trace doesn't cite any of my code. Does anyone know what might be the cause? I am on React Native 0.47.1

This problem also occur for many others as well and the cause is various. You can find the discussion about it here. Since I really don't know what your app does so here is some possible reasons:
You're using react-native-navigation (you can try change it back to react-navigation)
You're using react-native-image-crop-picker or react-native-image-picker (Which produce the same error that make your app crash on some device and it throw InterruptedException
If the problem is number 2 you can try to fix it by alter MainApplication.java:
#Override
public boolean clearHostOnActivityDestroy() {
return false;
}
The fix in number 2 was also reference from here under acintyo answer.
As for changing the react-native version you can try it but I do not recommend it since after reading through the issues mentioned above, I saw that many version also experienced this issues (most of them are 0.49.+ or 0.45.x)

But I didn't find "dumpMessageHistory" in my code, please help, thanks!!
The class android.app.ANRAppManager can not be found in Android Application Framework (/frameworks/base/core/java/android/app). Probably it is a vendor supplied class for MTK chips. Whenever there is an ANR raised, ANRAppManager.dumpMessageHistory would be invoked.
The best advice would be to keep track of all cases of ANR that takes place in your app and try to fix it.

Access scope using Kind Name on Google Cloud / Android Mobile Backend Starter

Documentation for the Google Cloud MBS states that access to stored Entities can be controlled via prefixing the KindName of that entity with strings "[public]" or "[private]" (or nothing).
https://cloud.google.com/developers/articles/mobile-backend-starter-api-reference#acfce
However attempting insertion of CloudEntities into the Datastore using KindNames that start with [public] or [private] causes an exception/error, specifically that the KindName is invalid.
This is the case both for the Backend running in Open and in Secured mode (using Google login credentials to derive the _owner field)
e.g. here I use KindName "[public]TestDB" which fails, whereas "TestDB" would not throw any exception.
04-22 19:57:54.132: E/AndroidRuntime(4690): Process: com.example.package, PID: 4690
04-22 19:57:54.132: E/AndroidRuntime(4690): java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal kind name: [public]TestDB
04-22 19:57:54.132: E/AndroidRuntime(4690): at com.google.cloud.backend.core.CloudEntity.(CloudEntity.java:86)
04-22 19:57:54.132: E/AndroidRuntime(4690): at com.example.package.CloudUtil.convertUpdatesToCEList(CloudUtil.java:252)
04-22 19:57:54.132: E/AndroidRuntime(4690): at com.example.package.CloudUtil.checkSync(CloudUtil.java:199)
The relevant section of code editted/compressed for brevity is:
CloudBackendMessaging cbm=_cloudfrag.getCloudBackend();
List<CloudEntity> entries=new ArrayList<CloudEntity>();
while (...) {
CloudEntity ce=new CloudEntity(_CLOUD_DB_KIND);
ce.put("fieldname", devID);
entries.add(ce);
}
_countActivity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
cbm.updateAll(entries, handler);
}
});
Where handler is the callback and _cloudfrag is the CloudBackendFragment from the sample code.
I get the same effect using both inserts and updates, for single or multiple i.e. lists of entities at a time.
I can only think I'm misunderstanding the documentation - but it seems fairly explicit that KindNames can begin with [public] [private] etc?
Judging by the bug reports on github from others experiencing the same issue, this is a bug in Google's MBS library.
Unfortunately the response to this has been silence for months until tonight the devs posted a single commit updating the readme file to indicate this library is no longer supported and is not an official google product (despite it being pushed as a starter kit with every cloud project started from the console!).
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/solutions-mobile-backend-starter-android-client/pull/16
Looking at the source I think this access modifier feature was never actually implemented despite documentation to the contrary.
