Any ideas Jamie?

[Jamie Nicol [:jnicol]]

I highly doubt any of these old phones got a software update so it must be a change we made. Snorp and I made some SurfaceTexture changes towards the end of last year but I'm not sure if any of them could be responsible.

Is this worth getting a device to try to reproduce? Or perhaps we could use EGL images instead of surfacetextures for video on these GPUs.

Potentially these drivers don't like bug 1395497?

Comment 4

[James Willcox (:snorp) ([e-mail]) (he/him)]

Yeah. Fairly low volume, all things considered. Looks like this is mostly on j2lte, which is the Samsung Galaxy J2. Probably just need to get one of those and see what's going on, I'd guess.

This is the #4 top crash in 60 Beta 15, but volume is not high. I would expect when 60 gets to release we will see more crashes on these two device sets (besides the Samsung Galaxy J2 the other signature shows Samsung SM-N7505 as the top crasher).

Does this just affect older Samsung devices?

> Does this just affect older Samsung devices?

From what I can see in crash stats so far, yes.

Comment 8

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

Updating flags. SM-N7505, which is the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is also affected. That phone dates back to 2014.

No crashes in recent builds. Resolving as WFM.
