Unable to reproduce this issue with webview version 68.0.3440.75 and 68.0.3440.85 using Nexus5/Android 6.0. 

1. Installed attached app-debug.apk
2. Clicked on story , Scrolled left to right
3. Scrolled top to bottom and didn't observe any crash.

@nitinsharma639: Could you please check the steps and let us know if we miss anything? Please let us know which webview version you are using? Please update webview version to latest and let us knwow if issue is fixed. Providing device details along with screencast would help us in better triaging.

Thanks!

Hello there 

This issue not occurs on all devices. Please check log. It is happening on OnePlus Devices. It may occur on other devices as well. Can you suggest me some way or optimization so it would not occur.

Thanks 

Thank you for providing more feedback. Adding the requester to the cc list.

Hmm couldn't symbolize the attached log straight away (I assume the attached 3 logs are all identical).

However I am seeing an "Out of memory error" in the logs as below. Could that perhaps be the reason?

Hello 

Yes this is because out of memory. Can you please point out how can I resolve it. It causing screen to be blank.

I am using following code.


        final WebSettings webSettings = webview.getSettings();
// use cookies to remember a logged in status
        CookieSyncManager.createInstance(getActivity());
        CookieSyncManager.getInstance().startSync();

        webview.setWebViewClient(new MyAppWebViewClient());

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O_MR1) {
            newsdetailtextview.startSafeBrowsing(getActivity(), safebrowsingcallback);
        }


        webSettings.setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
        webSettings.setUseWideViewPort(true);
        webSettings.setLoadsImagesAutomatically(true);
        webSettings.setLightTouchEnabled(true);
        webSettings.setSupportMultipleWindows(false);
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            webview.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);

        }

        Log.e("NewsDetailFragment", "html " + finalDetails);
        webSettings.setGeolocationEnabled(false);
        webSettings.setCacheMode(WebSettings.LOAD_NO_CACHE);
        webSettings.setAppCacheEnabled(false);
        webSettings.setNeedInitialFocus(false);
        webSettings.setSaveFormData(false);
        webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        webSettings.setRenderPriority(WebSettings.RenderPriority.HIGH);
        webSettings.setSavePassword(false);
        webSettings.setEnableSmoothTransition(true);
        webSettings.setSaveFormData(false);
        webSettings.setDomStorageEnabled(false);
        webSettings.setLayoutAlgorithm(WebSettings.LayoutAlgorithm.NARROW_COLUMNS);
        webSettings.setSupportZoom(false);
        newsdetailtextview.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
        CookieManager cookieManager = CookieManager.getInstance();
        cookieManager.setAcceptCookie(true);
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            cookieManager.setAcceptThirdPartyCookies(newsdetailtextview, true);
        }
//        webview.setOverScrollMode();
//        webview.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, new Paint());
        webview.loadDataWithBaseURL("https://www.punjabkesari.in/", finalDetails, "text/html; charset=UTF-8", null, null);
        webview.setTag(html);
        webview.setOnTouchListener(onWebviewTouch);
        webview.setWebChromeClient(new MyWebChromeClient(this));

 

Yeah, decoding and rendering images takes a lot of memory. Very easy to run out of virtual address space (which is what's happening here) on a 32bit device / app.

Follow best practices on the web like unloading the images that are offscreen. Maybe this helps:
