osu osu!lazer fails to launch on Android 7 (subsequent launches)

Type

Game behaviour

Bug description

When opening osu!lazer on the Asus Zenpad 10 (P00C) tablet, the initial boot will start correctly allowing for normal gameplay however, on all subsequent starts after, osu!lazer displays a black screen without hiding the SystemUI and will hang. Sometimes, after having the game in the foreground for several minutes, Android may present the 'osu! is not responding' dialog box. The only way to run osu! again would be through clearing all the game's data. This issue does not affect my Android 14 Samsung Phone.

osu!lazer was installed via ADB and USB Debugging is enabled

After rebooting the tablet the issue is occurring on, osu!lazer still fails to boot. I would presume this issue is due to the game attempting to load/initialise files in an incorrect way

After updating osu!lazer, the game will not hand for several seconds then the app will crash. A video has been provided below:

Also happens to poco x6 pro, android 15, xiaomi hyper os 2

I'll look at logcat and see if there is any info through that

Feb 22 '25 18:02 splamei

Looked at logcat and the game crashed due to it holding up the UI Thread. (Based on my Unity Knowledge) osu!lazer probably is trying to load config files but it's doing it on the thread the deals with the UI thus, preventing anything being rendered causing Android to flag a crash Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT), code -6 in tid 22964 (SDLThread). It would make sense since the crash only occurs after osu! has already been booted into.

The logcat file is below if anyone knows more then me: asus-P00C-Android-7_2025-02-22_181517.txt

It appears that a later update might have fixed the issue. I'm leaving open to fully verify

Jun 13 '25 13:06 splamei

Probably going to close for now, but currently you can't confirm again in the latest version due to https://github.com/ppy/osu/issues/34992.

I'll confirm if the issue is fixed tonight. I'll reopen the issue if it's still a problem
