The strangest Android error message I've ever seen
OK, this has gotta be the oddest Android error message I've ever seen. I
had installed the UserLAnd app on an Android 14 tablet to run an
experiment (it permits installation of various Linux distributions).
When I went to uninstall it, at the end of the process an error popped
(whether this was actually related to the uninstall or not I don't know
for sure):
Share Heap Error
The com.android.settings process exceeded its memory limit of 480MB
please colleagues test grab logs through 3333 and report problems
and an OK selection box.
It also threw a notification:
Shell: Android system exceeded memory limit, tap to share.
I avoided touching the OK popup or the notification and just shut down.
I have no idea WHOM it wanted to send this data to.
Talk about an internal error message being exposed.
