I am creating a 2D game on Android using OpenGL. Currently I am testing and debugging the game on several devices. The problem I am facing, is the terrible "signal 11" error.
When I am playing on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, everything runs smooth, and I can play it for hours without the game throwing any errors. My Nexus is running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
Now, when I run it on other devices, I am getting this signal 11 error. This are the devices which throw the error:
- HTC Desire HD (Gingerbread)
- HTC Desire Z (Gingerbread)
- HTC Wildfire (Gingerbread)
- Advent Vega tablet (Vegacomb)
- Asus EE Pad Transformer (Icecream Sandwich)
I can't use USB debugging on my Advent Vega, but the other 3 devices that pop the error are debuggable. It seems I need to root my device to get some more info about the signal 11 error. I was able to root my Galaxy Nexus and my Desire HD.
As the error always seems to appear at the same moment (when the game is just finished loading the textures), I supposed I could do with just one rooted device to find out what the cause of the problem is, then fix it, and test the new version on the other device.
First I thought it had something to do with memory management (not freeing my objects, therefore performing a lot of GC requests). So after a few hours profiling, optimizing, testing, etc, I found that this was not the problem.
Then I assumed it had something to do with Thread Safety (one thread trying to get something from memory, where another thread has just destroyed the reference). But this doesn't seem to be the case either.
Ok, so now I have my rooted Desire HD wired to my laptop, and I have my Eclipse project open and DDMS running.
Now, what does logcat tell me when the game/application crashes?

Of course I googled this, and searched the internet for possible fixes, but found nothing really useful there.
People are talking about looking into the SO file (in this case libc.so) and find the line where the application crashes.
Now, the problem is that I am running Windows, and do not know how to dig into this matter any deeper. I am just stuck here...
So, my question is actually rather simple: Can anyone assist me here?
Is there some way to dig into this?
How can I find out what #00 pc 0000d200 /system/lib/libc.so means?
When Zygote throws a signal 11, that means some process attempted to access a forbidden memory zone. I suggest use android_print to check the zone where the program tried to access and failed, using DDMS.
If you are using OpenGL remember it works in an independent thread, so initialize all variables used by OpenGL on constructors to avoid this kind of problem. Try to test rending a test, then use your game code.
If you see SIGSEGV 11, code 1 with a call stack like libgles<blablabla...>, the first thing you should do is check the OpenGL/EGL initialization. Different GPUs on Android may or may not support some features you request during OpenGL initialization. You should look into that and try to find the function that fails,
and add a code that will retry with working configuration parameters.
I had a similar issue, and I solved just clicking on "Build -> Refresh Linked C++ Library".
Maybe can be useful for someone else.
