signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1 (SEGV_MAPERR), fault a

Question

My app has been crashing randomly with signal 11. I was able to get my hands on tombstone file from emulator but I am not able to understand what is wrong with my app. I have gone through many posts here with the same error but haven't found a working solution yet. I am attaching my stack-trace file here please help me understand the problem and how can I fix it.

Here is logcat from the crash

Here is the link to tombstone file. Drive link

Answer 1

So for me, the problem was parsing Google's Location object with Gson. I created my own SimpleLocation object and it solved the problem. Google's Location object was throwing random Signal 11 error and crashing randomly.
