Question

Have you ever met such problems？ When exiting the activity in a thread in a SurfaceView.
This log appears in this situation:

Answer 1

No. (that is the answer to your question :P)

To solve your problem, could you please post the code of the Activity this exception was thrown in? Especially parts where views are created&destroyed from code.

Answer 2

This seems like a platform issue that has not yet been resolved. I'm trying to find a way to trap the exception or avoid it somehow... I have the same problem in my app.
