Gray Screen Bug possible reasons

[sansyrox]

I found some possible reasons for the grey screen bugs, I will give it a deeper look post the audio processing class.

Possibly unrelated, but @eviishondell encountered gray screen when screen-recoding any 3-5 activities in a row.

1. What other than a memory leak could cause this behavior?
2. How can we detect memory leaks?
   a. Log available memory after each activity, e.g. in activity selector
   -: requires modifying RoboTutor
   +: can check after the fact
   b. Run a separate memory monitoring app
   +: don't need to modify RoboTutor itself
   -: must check app repeatedly

@JackMostow , ideally this should be fixed with the PR addressing the screen crashes on the cancel button press in the ScreenRecorder helper class.

However, there is a memory profiler present in Android Studio, it can be used to detect memory leaks.

@VishnuSanal, can you use the memory profiler to see if a memory leak is why screen-recoding 3-5 activities in a row causes gray screen? Thanks!

@eviishondell - Did you check the "don't show again" box for the question about enabling screen recording?

[eviishondell]

I didn’t click that button.

In case not, Sanskar asks that you try clicking "don't show again" to see if it solves the gray screen problem.

I am meeting with Nikki at 1, so I will get that done as soon as possible!
