ANR Increased

[Gokulv617]

Hi ,

After updating to the latest ANEs and AIR SDK, we have noticed a significant increase in Android ANRs — around 40–50% across our live applications.

During our internal testing, we were not able to reproduce or identify any ANR issues. However, we have already observed this increase in more than 10 live apps after the updates.

At the moment, we are unable to determine whether the issue is related to the ANE updates, AIR SDK, or any of the underlying Android dependencies.

I have shared the ANE versions and AIR SDK/build information below for your reference. Please find the attached document.
ANE and SDK version.txt
Could you please review them and let us know if you notice any potential compatibility issue or dependency that could be contributing to the ANR increase?

In particular, please let us know if you recommend:

Any ANE version changes or downgrades
Any AIR SDK version changes
Any dependency/version changes
Any specific ANR logs or additional information we should collect for further investigation

NOTE: compileSdk version of 35 should not be used with a targetSdk version of 36, please update your Android SDK

Using gradle 8.7 with AGP version 8.6.0, compileSdk 35, targetSdk 36
Java in D:/Java/jdk-17.0.8\bin\java.exe

Gradle build where ADT is using JRE version 17.0.19
but where Gradle will be using the JDK from D:/Java/jdk-17.0.8\bin\java.exe

Your suggestions would be very helpful in identifying the cause of this issue.

Thank you.

Can you post any of the ANR reports from the play console?

What changed in your build when you noticed the increase? Was it just a change in the AIR SDK? Have you tried using the latest 51.3.4?

[Gokulv617]

Yes, I tried AIR 51.3.4.1 as well, but the result is the same—the ANR rate has increased. Previously, I was using AIR 51.2.2.3, which was working fine with a much lower ANR rate.

Now I have updated to the new ANEs and newer AIR SDK versions. Some games are using AIR 51.3.4.1, while others are using AIR 51.3.3.2, but both versions show the same increase in ANR.

Hi

Is it possible to get the full report for that top-rated issue? The log above is a thread that's triggered by the animation timer (callTimeoutFunction) and then ends up going into PushLocalFrame - what's actually happening is a URL request is trying to load contents from a local file, and the 'read' method is starting .. but uses PushLocalFrame to ensure the JNI memory doesn't get too cluttered. That method itself shouldn't cause an ANR so there will probably be other threads that are doing things at the same time...

The alternative reason - and seeing the other error there saying "AIRFileDescriptorWrapper.read" which is what the native function here may well have called - is that you're trying to do the reading of a large file and it's timing out. With the changes in Android APK packaging, with contents being read directly from compressed APKs, some of these read operations have got slower. You could improve the performance by ensuring that file type isn't compressed in the APK perhaps? - I think from this that you're using a Loader rather than asynchronous FileStream etc, but not entirely sure, and also not completely sure if that would help...

I'm getting a 'file not found' for the "ANE and SDK version.txt" attachment but are you able to check that it's related more to the AIR SDK version rather than the "compileSdk" or "targetSdk" settings in the built APK?

thanks

[Gokulv617]

Hi,

Okay, I will check the callTimeoutFunction ANR issue.

However, my games are already live, and I haven't made any code changes inside the games. The only changes I made were related to the Android 16 update. Specifically, I changed the manifest targetSdkVersion from 35 to 36 and updated to the latest ANEs and AIR SDK.

After these updates, the ANR rate increased significantly. So, I would like to understand whether this issue is related to the AIR SDK/ANE updates or the targetSdkVersion change.

[marchbold]

The full log from the ANR should help if you can get that?

[ajwfrost]

And just to clarify the likely issue:

I changed the manifest targetSdkVersion from 35 to 36 and updated to the latest ANEs and AIR SDK.

This makes the Android behaviour change - if you had also updated your Android SDK with the latest platform and build tools, it would also mean the APK/AAB files are packaged up differently, which results in different on-device behaviour. So, each change to Android platform version is going to involve a bit of a risk...

With the full ANR details we can hopefully confirm what the root cause is, but there may not be an easy "fix" that reverts the behaviour because we are having to deal with the Android OS and platform restrictions/requirements..

thanks

[megajogos]

The same here! After update targetSdkVersion to 36 and update AIR the ANR increased!

[megajogos]

We're seeing the same pattern described here. Our production app recently moved to AIR SDK 51.3.4.1 with targetSdkVersion/compileSdkVersion 36. Over the last 24h (partial staged rollout, ~9% of active users) Firebase Crashlytics shows 110 ANRs affecting 76 users, with our largest cluster (customHandler.callTimeoutFunction, 16 events / 14 users, 3 variants) tracing into the vendor GLES driver.

Build config:

• AIR SDK: 51.3.4.1
• targetSdkVersion / compileSdkVersion: 36
• renderMode: gpu
• runtimeInBackgroundThread: false

One variant's stack trace:

main (native) — tid=1
libc.so         syscall + 28
libc.so         __futex_wait_ex + 144
libc.so         pthread_cond_wait + 72
libGLESv2_samsung.so   (x7 frames, no symbols)
libGLESv2_samsung.so   GL_DrawElements + 752
split_config.arm64_v8a.apk   (x25 frames, no symbols — AIR native runtime)
com.adobe.air.customHandler.callTimeoutFunction (Native method)
com.adobe.air.customHandler.handleMessage (customHandler.java:35)
android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage (Handler.java:132)

Devices in that cluster: Samsung, Motorola, Xiaomi — same signature shows up across GPU vendors and different app screens, not tied to one specific screen or asset.

We're also now seeing a separate cluster on com.google.android.gles_jni.EGLImpl.eglMakeCurrent — the other symptom described in #3588 (libc.so __futex_wait_ex hang involving GLESv2/EGL, tied to runtimeInBackgroundThread). We have that flag explicitly set to false. Haven't tried flipping it to true yet since #3523 reports ANRs in the opposite direction (touch input timeout) with that setting.

Happy to share more stack traces / device breakdown if useful for triage.

[amorganiv]

Our Learn to Read app has seen an increase in ANRs. Built with AIR 51.3.3.2 and target SDK 36.

Main ANRs:
com.adobe.air.Entrypoints.EntryMainWrapper
com.adobe.air.customHandler.callTimeoutFunction

Adding the stack traces for the ANR Entrypoints & customHandler.

Hi marchbold,

I have tested two different versions on different Android apps, and both games showed a significant increase in ANR, around 50% to 100%. I have also shared the ANR graphs from Google Play Console for reference.

I did not make any other changes to these apps apart from updating to SDK 36, the latest ANEs, and the latest AIR SDK.

I have a doubt that the ANR increase may be related to one of the updated ANEs, but I am currently unable to identify which component is causing the issue.

I also tried downgrading the AIR SDK from 51.3.3.2 to 51.2.2.7 for some of the apps, but the ANR rate did not decrease.

At this point, I am a little confused about the root cause. Could you please help me identify whether the issue could be related to the updated ANEs, AIR SDK, or SDK 36?

AirSDK 51.3.4.1 used APP ANR ,

AirSDK 51.3.3.2 use ANR ,

Thanks.
