What Does Win Death: Android.osdeadobjectexception Mean?

I am testing my app on older Android versions. It runs fine on Android 4.4.4, but 4.3 seems to crash immediately upon opening the app. I have no idea what this error means: W/dalvi

Solution 1:

DeadObjectException means you're trying to interact with an app that's already killed. Frequently this happens when writing system services like keyboards. It isn't your real problem though- your real problem is the C stack trace above it. You're attempting to access memory that has already been released on the Java side, causing you to segfault. You can tell that by the 0xDEADDOOD address.
