Some apps constantly crash (e.g. Skyshowtime) #1022
Comments
I installed Aurora from F-Droid and it finally works. However, Skyshowtime (installed via Aurora) is still crashing, but since this is an only app that does that, I assume this is something specific to that app. I checked other streaming apps like: Disney+, HBO Max and they have similar issue: they work, but when trying to get to the video, I can see only subtitles and low or no voice, and black screen. So no video is displayed. Is it something specific to Waydroid on arch = x86_64, or is it just me? |
The app is probably crashing due to the lack of play services or google services framework. You can either switch to the release with GAPPS or try to install microG which may or may not solve the problem as the waydroid images don't have signature spoofing support. |
Thanks. I'll try to switch to GAPPS version (when I find some time) and will let you know if that helped. |
how can I remove a container and install the one with gapps? |
I did a fresh installation of Aurora from F-Droid, and it crashes with the same symptoms as you described. How did you resolve that problem? |
I didn't :(. I had to give up for now, but someone above suggested to install the version with Google, which should work, but from lack of time, I haven't checked it out. |
I installed the gapps version of waydroid, but unfortunately the same problem happens, logcat reports
which is followed by
a few lines later. This is from a manual install through the f-droid store, but same results happen with sideloading the application. As a sidenote: I'm trying to get libhoudini installed right now to get arm>x86 translation, maybe that'll help with some crashes. I'm baffled this isn't included with waydroid by default |

Describe the bug
I manged to run Waydroid without issues on Manjaro. I installed Aurora shop from apk. It run with the setup steps, I logged in to Google and then it crashed. It looks like it opens the usual, main app screen but it doesn't load fully, because it crashes before any app or graphic shows up.
I also wanted to run Skyshowtime app (streaming TV) and it let me to log in and the main screen, but when clicking on any of the show or movie icons, it minimizes and on second try it crashes.
Apps installed via F-Droid work. There is some additional problem with F-Droid not updating repos on the next launch, but that is a different issue that we can ignore here.
During crashes, I get in log:
The path above is the path to the general log, but it still doesn't have the details. So where is this output passed and how to access it? When I use
waydroid --details-to-stdout log
it just show the usual log entries, nothing more (see the log below).General information (please complete the following information):

Additional info:
EDIT: I tried Disney+ from APK and it runs, but when I try to play the video, it informs me that it plays in full screen mode, I hear the sound (very quietly thou) but the screen is black, as if the output was to some other screen.

It looks like Manjaro kernel is compatible, but the issue lies elsewhere.
