Android ARM Recompiler broken with Build #532 - TIMMY - 10-19-2014
Sorry if this should of been posted in the Google issues site, since this only occurs on android and almost all the issues posted there are related to PC builds.
So as the title says, since Build #532 https://buildbot.dolphin-emu.org/builders/release-android/builds/532 any game will crash upon start-up with the ARM Recompiler, but with the interpreter everything works fine (slow!).
What surprises me the most is that it was almost a month ago, and I think since most the devs probably use the Nividia K1 it might of been something to do with the CPU Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 with the Adreno 330 (Tab Pro 10.1 LTE, stock rom, Android 4.4.2 if that helps). I'm not sure of this as I only have one android device.
Games aren't at a playable stage yet with the previous build anyway (5-10fps), however I still like something better than nothing

I've fixed a bug that was in that a couple weeks ago, right after I got back from ARM TechCon.
I'm surprised it is still crashing on your end. I was testing things earlier today on my Nexus 5 which was woring fine.
Fastmem is still a buggy mess on Qualcomm devices though?
RE: Android ARM Recompiler broken with Build #532 - TIMMY - 10-19-2014
Fastmem is actually great for me, doesn't crash and I get even up to an extra 10fps with it.
with build #532 it doesn't "crash" it simply puts me back to the main menu, however with the latest releases (just tried #672) the emulator completely crashes when trying to start a game. I should also point out i've only tried 3 games (Wind waker, Twilight princess, 4 swords Adventures,) so I don't know whether that's enough to make a call that this build breaks all games... or coincidentally just these.
Tomorrow ill try to get some other devices to test with, maybe it's just my tab :/
Okay, I have no idea is this going to be of any help but i ran via adb a log of the app whilst attempting to a game:

What kind of stands out is the last line:
D/dalvikvm(25357): No JNI_OnLoad found in /data/app-lib/org.dolphinemu.dolphinemu-22/libmain.so 0x42228b08, skipping init
No idea is that error linked to the crash...
RE: Android ARM Recompiler broken with Build #532 - TIMMY - 10-21-2014
Ok, I managed to test newer builds on a S2 running 4.2 Cyanogenmod and it WORKS.
Guessing Samsung maybe modified android to much lol, probably going to give up the warranty and get a clean Android version just like the Nexus
Also that log I uploaded is useless, apparently it's just a warning, nothing to do with the crash.

THANK YOU SOO MUCH TRIED LATEST BUILD AND IT WORKS!!!!
