Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0x00000000 (code=1) - PhoneGap

I was getting a similar error on the xhdpi Nexus 7 but things worked fine on my old phone. My problem occurred while updating a large GridView with lots of small buttons.

A/libc(7410): Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0xbe8a8000 (code=1), thread 7410

I don't think this is your problem because your PC was 0 and mine was at 0xbe8a8000 but it's easy to try and it fixed my problem so I'm going to post it in case someone else comes here looking for a SEGV solution.
There was a discussion on https://github.com/MasDennis/Rajawali/issues/313 about a similar problem and someone mentioned that they had the same problem and turning off hardware acceleration fixed it for them. It's easy to try and it fixed my problem.
In the Android manifest application add:

android:hardwareAccelerated="false"

Hope this helps someone else...

I just had the same problem on a project I was working on. It turned out that I was loading a lot of images and sounds and causing the app to run out of memory while trying to instantiate an Activity. Does your program use a lot of memory-intensive assets? Can you reduce their sizes at all?

In my case, the LogCat had a stack trace in green (INFO-level logging) immediately before the Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) line. The stack trace was an OutOfMemoryException while the app was loading assets for an Activity I was starting up. So I pulled up my drawables (my program had a lot of them), edited them to reduce their file size, and tried again. The bug went away. You can see if your LogCat output looks like mine to see if you have a similar issue:

Check for OutofMemory issues in my case I got this error on Samsung S3 and was for managing a lot of images on startup Activity. I googled a lot of responses without a solution because I didn't have an EditText or an input at all (actually, I don't know why the error show the spannable string zero lenght..... and not another thing like OutOfMemory, etc), then I realize the images ordered by resolution were in the wrong folders and oversized, and the Heap up in the skies. Good Luck

The following Google Plus post fixed my problem:

Basically the problem is related to optical bounds in 9 patches files. In my case I was using newer 9patches copied from the Holo Theme. This new patches are invalid in older versions of android as explained in the link

Make sure you have all the resources images under assets directory. I had this problem and it turns out that one of my images is missing. Once I put the image back under assets directory, everything is fine.

use this one... options.headers = { "Connection":"close" };

The following worked for me to get rid of the error in the webview:

webView.freeMemory();

or

webView.clearCache(true);

The second option will slow down your app.

For me issue is in chrome webview. I disable chrome & enable Android webview. It works fine for me.
