@jo-elimu Does it still happen with you? I cannot reproduce this crash.

[jo-elimu]

@tuancoltech Yes, still happening on a physical device running Android API 35 (ColorOS 15). But I tried the same test on API 26 (emulator) and API 32 (emulator), and they both worked.

So I'll do some more testing on other physical devices, and see if I can reproduce it.
