Android App Crashes with Sigabrt Signal 6 Only While Eclipse Debugging

Android app crashes with SIGABRT Signal 6 only while Eclipse debugging

android intentionally kills the process because it thinks the UI thread is hung, so its a ANR right.
for debugging purposes you can,

Go to Settings -> Developer options and check Show all ANRs.

This will show an App Not Responding dialog for apps running in the background. You can click the Wait button in the dialog to prevent the system from killing your process until the debugger attaches.
Note that the dialog is opened automatically for apps running in the foreground. For background apps, you have to enable this option

Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT) while switching android activities

The signal you are getting is an 'abort' signal, check this for a list of possible signals.

I guess your problem is with the getApplicationContext().startActivity(i); here. Just write startActivity(i) here and you should be good.

Also notice this part of the Android documentation about getApplicationContext:

Return the context of the single, global Application object of the
current process. This generally should only be used if you need a
Context whose lifecycle is separate from the current context, that is
tied to the lifetime of the process rather than the current component.

What is fatal signal 6 in android logcat

Without more details (like seeing some code).

1) Do not block the UI thread, this can cause a SIGABRT as the OS will kill a non-responsive app.

bind and unbind on every activity when i switch for like 11 times it crashes my app

2) Make sure that in your OnDestroy within your Activity you are cleaning up after yourself. i.e. Removing all your Listeners/Events and then calling the Base.OnDestory.

3) An external (i.e. BluetoothLeService) service calling back into your app with listeners that now null/nil will cause hangs and thus a SIGABRT, see #2

OpenMAX AL crashes with Signal 6 (SIGABRT). Media Server dies

You're getting an assertion failure in stagefright:

A/ATSParser(21042): frameworks/av/media/libstagefright/mpeg2ts/ATSParser.cpp:1194 CHECK_EQ( sync_byte,0x47u) failed: 169 vs. 71
A/libc(21042): Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT) at 0x00005232 (code=-6), thread 21385 (NuPlayerDriver )

It looks like it's unhappy with the data stream (which is weird -- should be an error, not a fatal assertion if that's the case).

Your best bet is to figure out what it is about the stream that the libstagefright parser is choking on.

The build fingerprint says that's an older device with an ICS build (samsung/GT-I9100/GT-I9100:4.0.3/IML74K). I don't see ICS frameworks/av sources on the source site, but the jellybean source file looks like it's probably the same... the check is on line 1033. It appears to be failing while trying to parse the transport stream.

VM Aborting :Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT) at 0x00001247 (code=-6)

Texview contents exceeds the gridview table size and throws fatal exception.I reduce the textview contents in Database and solved this error.
