Steps to Reproduce

Create a new default Flutter project
change /android/build.gradle to use classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.3.1'
change /android/app/build.gradle to use minifyEnabled true in the appropriate build type. If you're running in debug:

    buildTypes {
        debug {
            minifyEnabled true
        }
    }

run on an API 19 device (flutter run) or emulator (flutter run --enable-software-rendering)

Actual results:

The app crashes.

Hi @deckerst I tried with a new Flutter project with gradle:7.1.2 on Pixel API 19 and saw it can run normally. However, it crashed when changing to gradle:7.3.1.

Also, the issue doesn't happen on Pixel 3a, Android 12, API 32.

Do you have a similar log? If not so, can you provide the output of flutter run -v in a text file and attach it here?

Logs from flutter run -v --enable-software-rendering on an API 19 emulator run with Android Studio Dolphin 2021.3.1: flutter_115100_logs.txt

I don't have a real API 19 device at hand, and I can't get the logcat traces from this API 19 emulator, with the actual crash stack trace. However, this issue has been reported to me originally in https://github.com/deckerst/aves/issues/388, with some interesting logcat traces, especially this stack trace:

@deckerst Based on your log, it seems to be related to existing app (Android native). In my case, I was trying with the default Flutter (counter app) and it crashed as my above comment. Can you also try and confirm? If you also face the same log, please take a look at issue https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/81901 as a similar issue.

Nov 11 '22 11:11 huycozy

Your logs only show the flutter tooling failing to connect to the app. And it cannot connect because the app failed to launch from the very beginning, when the activity is created. This is true for my app as well as for the basic counter app.

The native failure cannot be seen from the flutter run logs. Only logcat will show it.

As I understand it, the cause of this early crash is that the minifying process from the Android Gradle plugin creates machine code incompatible with the Dalvik VM that is used on Android until KitKat/API19.

https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/81901 seems unrelated. The symptoms are different, and the likely cause too.

Nov 11 '22 12:11 deckerst

@deckerst I can see the same log when using adb logcat. The issue is reproducible on the latest stable and master channels. Labeling this issue for further investigation from the team.

@camsim99 and I were able to reproduce this. The offending code appears to be protected though so I am not sure how it is being called. https://github.com/flutter/engine/blob/main/shell/platform/android/io/flutter/embedding/android/FlutterView.java#L390

Nov 22 '22 22:11 reidbaker

upon further investigation we found that you get this error without minification enabled and only by updating to a more recent version of gradle and kotlin.

Nov 22 '22 22:11 reidbaker

Last update for the evening. Running with android version 33 does seem to pass.

Nov 22 '22 22:11 reidbaker

@reidbaker maybe we're not talking about the same bug, but my initial report was for a crash specifically depending on 3 conditions:

API 19
minified
Android Gradle plugin 7.3

Anything else (API>19, or not minified, or AGP <7.3) works fine for me.

Nov 22 '22 22:11 deckerst

We were able to reproduce the issue with those conditions except it did not require minification.

I have the same problem in real API 16 when I set AGP to 7.3, if I use 7.2 there is no problem and the app runs perfectly. I am not applying minify options either.

This is the trace obtained with logcat when starting the application:

@huycozy When you reproduced the error on a Pixel, was that an AVD or a physical device? I've done some digging and have a suspicion that this is an emulator issue. I've been able to find similar emulator issues related to the Could not find class 'android.view.autofill.AutofillManager'... error.

I've also been able to reproduce the TextInputPlugin error even when the app does not crash, so I don't think that is the cause.

The issue i originally reported was happening on a real device.

I was testing on Pixel API 19 emulator. But I can not see the same error message anymore on the latest stable and master channels. I also see the similar warning/info message from adb logcat output:

Could not find method android.view.autofill.AutofillManager.

Actual result:

The app can start normally but it is disconnected after that (from the console log). There is Flutter crash log as below.

@camsim99 are you still working on this issue?

Jan 17 '23 21:01 christopherfujino

I submitted a fix for a bug I found while investigating this (https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/116536), but it did not fix the issue.

I've recently done some more testing, and I found that I was able to recreate this on emulators running API 19 and 18 consistently with no changes to the default Flutter app after running it once or twice. I'm still not sure what's going on, but it may have to do with either this error that shows up on every failure

and/or this error that shows up on runs that succeed

WARNING: linker: libdvm.so has text relocations. This is wasting memory and is a security risk. Please fix.

I'm wondering if this device-specific or < API 19 specific as they both point to some sort of security or compiling error. Any thoughts would be appreciated! @christopherfujino

Jan 18 '23 19:01 camsim99

I believe that the first issue is what this issue is tracking. It might be worth filing an issue for the second.

As for more detailed thoughts, I'm sorry I don't have any.

I am also having this exact VerifyError crash issue in Xeonjia (as a user, not a dev), which uses Flutter: https://gitlab.com/deepdaikon/Xeonjia/-/issues/17

However, I can also reproduce it without Flutter on a clean Android Studio project as long as I use:

Android Jelly Bean or KitKat
Android Gradle Plugin 7.3
minifyEnabled true (so far pretty much what @deckerst observed)
The following code somewhere, e.g. in MainActivity.onCreate:

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
    ViewStructure test = null;
    if (test != null)
        test.addChildCount(1);
}

For some reason, DalvikVM's bytecode verifier rejects the method invocation instead of replacing it with a throw like in many other cases.

Upgrading to AGP 7.4 or downgrading to 7.2 fixes the problem for me (although I haven't tried a Flutter project). So I doubt this is a Flutter issue.

Jan 28 '23 21:01 MiroslavR

I'm not convinced this is a Flutter issue, either. After doing a little more research, it seems like code/resource shrinking this on debug mode is generally discouraged (see docs, it is mentioned a couple places there). However, it is done by default for release builds on Flutter, so that should be working fine.

Feb 03 '23 18:02 camsim99

Maybe i wasn't clear in my original issue description. It was crashing in release mode. And i found out that it was because of the code shrinking (which is by default in release mode, as you mentioned). Because minification is a crucial ingredient for the crash, i singled it out in my report.

Feb 03 '23 18:02 deckerst

@deckerst Ah, I see. So the code snippet you included in the issue above is incorrect? I'm wondering how I can properly reproduce the issue.

Feb 03 '23 18:02 camsim99

The code snippet (explicitly enabling minification) is only necessary for debug mode, yes.

Because testing release mode is difficult without a physical device, i provided the snippet so that people can test with an emulator in debug mode. Sorry if this snippet confused you.

The point is, minified code (automatic in release mode, or manual in debug mode) with AGP 7.2 was ok, minified code with AGP 7.3 crashes.

Feb 03 '23 18:02 deckerst

To reiterate work that was done before, this error comes without minifyEnabled set to true. I agree with what was said above about the DalvikVM being involved. Thus, I still suspect this may be an Android issue, but I will consider following up internally to see if our Gradle configuration is a factor.

There are a variety of similar issues filed that have led me to this conclusion, for example:

@camsim99 is this something we need to track on the Flutter issue tracker? And if so, is it still a p3?

Since it seems like an Android issue and I'm not actively working on it, I'll bump it down to a P4 for now. Shouldn't need to be escalated right now.

Sounds good to me.

Just to confirm what was pointed above, upgrading to AGP 7.4 fixes this for me.
