When did you first install Vendetta Online?
If it was before November of last year, please do a Clear Data or reinstall and let me know if that fixes it. This will cause you to have to redownload all the assets again though.

Installed it yesterday on brand-new tablet I just bought. Got the error, wiped it completely (factory reset), applied latest OTA patch Asus offered (which is listed in info above) to the same result. Other games and programs work like a charm.

Thanks for the quick response.
What is happening is that the game is trying to run the ARM version on your Atom x86 tablet, which causes the OS to run the game through libhoudini to translate the code from ARM to x86. However, there's a bug in libhoudini that the new VO patch exposes.

The confusing thing is why the game is trying to run the ARM version and not the x86 version.
I thought I had figured out why but your response tells me that my theory is wrong.

We are working on a fix as fast as we can and will release it as soon as it's working.

Another question, did you happen to copy all your files from an older Android device to the new one? Or is this the first time you've ever run VO on an Android device?
May 03, 2015 Aord link
No, I have not copied anything, this was a new install on new device.
And thanks to you for such a quick and helpful response!

Patch 1.8.335.2 has been released to fix the crash problem.

Awesome! It works, thanks a lot!

Same issue here but on Android phone with actual Armv support and protocols installed. Still same as you - crash on startup.
