Your Environment
Nexus Player 7.1.2 Kodi 17.3 quasar 0.9.78 (tried both Universal, which used to work, and Android x86 versions)
Last setup that used to work: Nexus Player 7.0 (probably even 7.1 but unverified) Kodi 17.1 quasar 0.9.78 (tried both Universal, which used to work, and Android x86 versions)

I can help build and test solutions if you don't have the exact setup to reproduce
There are many results in google describing the issue with Android >= 7 with a "CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE .... has text relocations" errors.
Fast way to fix it - downgrade to Android less than 7.
There are messages saying it can help to build with "-DPIC" enabled, but that should be probably addressed to libtorrent library build.
Can you try to install this test version of Quasar to see if it start fine on your hardware? https://github.com/elgatito/plugin.video.quasar/files/1035748/plugin.video.quasar-0.9.78.android_x86.zip or https://github.com/elgatito/plugin.video.quasar/files/1035720/plugin.video.quasar-0.9.78.android_x64.zip ?
It's a test version, but we will see if Android let it start.
This definitely works, thank you, I've been tearing my hair for hours trying to get this to work since the previous issue with Android 7.0 seemed to be "fixed"
Sorry for the early close.
Btw, this version will not delete torrents after stopping, can provide logs if needed
It's a test version, but we will see if Android let it start.
It's not a fully-operational version. But a test to see if it runs on android 7. You should wait for new Quasar version.
Same setup and issue here also. Would be awesome if a fix will be released soon.
