adwhirl causing android app to crash

I'm trying to integrate adwhirl into one of my apps and it keeps crashing when I try and run it. I have current set it to test mode to try and get it working in the emulator, but it only works part of the time. It's never crashed without adwhirl. I've included my logcat in case anybody knows how I can fix my error. Thanks for the help.

How do you fix an app that keeps stopping on Android?

To fix Android apps that keep crashing: To do this, go to Settings and open Apps. Under Your apps, you'll see a list of the apps currently installed on your device. From the list, tap the app that keeps crashing and tap Force stop in the bottom right corner. Then try opening the app again.

Why are my apps closing automatically Android Studio?

Apps on Android can crash because of low storage space, too many apps running simultaneously, a weak internet connection, or not having the proper app updates installed.

How do I manually crash an app on Android?

throw new RuntimeException("This is a crash"); Make sure to remove the line after testing is done. Another way to crash an Android app is to make a DivideByZero exception. In the onCreate method of your activity, simply write an expression with a number being divided by 0.

What is the meaning of app crash?

An Android app crashes whenever there's an unexpected exit caused by an unhandled exception or signal. An app that is written using Java or Kotlin crashes if it throws an unhandled exception, represented by the Throwable class.

There are two good news about this.

  1. this does only affect the Millennial adapter -- all others are working fine
  2. it does only occur in the emulator and only for 2.3. On real devices it is not an issue.

You can read this Millennial Media's Android developer wiki. They answer the question "Why is my app crashing in the Android 2.3 emulator?" the following way:

The MMAdView class relies upon the WebView’s javascript to java bridge. Unfortunately, this bridge is broken in the 2.3 implementation of the Android emulator and will likely never be fixed. As an alternative you can do testing with other versions of the emulator or use a physical Android 2.3 device. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=12987

To work around this and allow me to test my app in the 2.3 emulator without the need to deactivate Millennial in the AdWhirl web interface I've patched AdWhirl's Millennial adapter to skip gracefully in the 2.3 emulator. This can be done the following way:

  1. use 7-Zip or a similar tool to remove com.adwhirl.adapters.MillennialAdapter from the AdWhirlSDK_Android_2.6.3.jar.
  2. Download the java file for the MillennialAdapter from the AdWhirl code repository and place it in your project in the correct folder structure (com.adwhirl.adapters).
  3. Adjust the beginning of the adapter´s handle() method, so that it looks like the following:
@Override
public void handle() {
  Log.d(AdWhirlUtil.ADWHIRL, "Using GoodNews specific MillennialAdapter");

  /*
   * prevent 2.3 emulator from crashing
   */
  if ("google_sdk".equals(Build.PRODUCT) && "9".equals(Build.VERSION.SDK)) {
      Log.d(AdWhirlUtil.ADWHIRL, "Detected Gingerbread Emulator");
      throw new RuntimeException(
        "MillenialAdapter not supported on Gingerbread emulator");
  }

  ...

If you now start your app in the 2.3 emulator AdWhirl will rollover whenever trying to request a Gingerbread ad and use the next network from your backfill list. If you start your app e.g. in a 2.2 emulator or on a real device the Millennial ads will show up.
