Android Fatal Signal 11

In the app I'm developing on Android, I keep getting a Fatal Signal 11 error.

I think it's something to do with the way that I'm accessing the memory but I can't figure out what is causing it.

Any help will be much appreciated!

Here's the LogCat:

I had been trying to call an uninitialised Canvas inside another Class so when it was trying to get the height or width of it, it would crash.


I had the same problem with an instance of android.media.MediaRecorder.

The code accessed #getMaxAmplitude() after #reset() and #release() on the MediaRecorder instance had been called.
