You can see the source code about this output here:

void InputDispatcher::onDispatchCycleBrokenLocked(
        nsecs_t currentTime, const sp<Connection>& connection) {
    ALOGE("channel '%s' ~ Channel is unrecoverably broken and will be disposed!",
            connection->getInputChannelName());
    CommandEntry* commandEntry = postCommandLocked(
            & InputDispatcher::doNotifyInputChannelBrokenLockedInterruptible);
    commandEntry->connection = connection;
}

It's cause by cycle broken locked...

As I faced this error  somewhere in your code your funcs or libraries that used run on different threads  so try to call all code on the same thread    it fixed my problem      If you call methods on WebView from any thread other than your app s UI thread  it can cause unexpected results  For example  if your app uses multiple threads  you can use the runOnUiThread   method to ensure your code executes on the UI thread    Google reference link

Reading through all contributions  it looks like many different origins exhibit cause this same problem symptoms   In my case for instance - I got this problem as soon as I added  android progressBackgroundTintMode  src over    to my progress bar properties  I think the GUI designer of ADT is known for several bugs  Hence I assume this is one of them  So if you encounter similar problem symptoms  that just do not make sense  after playing with your GUI setup  just try to roll back what you did and undo your last GUI modifications   Just press Ctrl z with the recently modified file on screen   Or   The Version Control tool could be helpful  Open the Version Control panel - choose Local Changes tab and see recently modified  perhaps  xml  files   Right click some most suspicious one and click Show Diff  Then just guess which modified line could be responsible   Good luck

I had the same problem  To solve the error  Close it on the emulator and then run it using Android Studio   The error happens when you try to re-run the app when the app is already running on the emulator    Basically the error says -  I don t have the existing channel anymore and disposing the already established connection  as you have run the app from Android Studio again

One of the most common reasons I see that error is when I am trying to display an alert dialog or progress dialog in an activity that is not in the foreground   Like when a background thread that displays a dialog box is running in a paused activity

This error occurred in case of memory leak  For example if you have any static context of an Android component  Activity service etc  and its gets killed by system   Example  Music player controls in notification area  Use a foreground service and set actions in the notification channel via PendingIntent like below    Intent notificationIntent   new Intent this  MainActivity class           notificationIntent setAction AppConstants ACTION MAIN ACTION           notificationIntent setFlags Intent FLAG ACTIVITY NEW TASK                   Intent FLAG ACTIVITY CLEAR TASK           PendingIntent pendingIntent   PendingIntent getActivity this  0                  notificationIntent  0            Intent previousIntent   new Intent this  ForegroundService class           previousIntent setAction AppConstants ACTION PREV ACTION           PendingIntent ppreviousIntent   PendingIntent getService this  0                  previousIntent  0            Intent playIntent   new Intent this  ForegroundService class           playIntent setAction AppConstants ACTION PLAY ACTION           PendingIntent pplayIntent   PendingIntent getService this  0                  playIntent  0            Intent nextIntent   new Intent this  ForegroundService class           nextIntent setAction AppConstants ACTION NEXT ACTION            Bitmap icon   BitmapFactory decodeResource getResources                    R drawable ic launcher            NotificationManager notificationManager    NotificationManager  getSystemService Context NOTIFICATION SERVICE           String NOTIFICATION CHANNEL ID    my channel id 01            if  Build VERSION SDK INT  gt   Build VERSION CODES O                NotificationChannel notificationChannel   new NotificationChannel NOTIFICATION CHANNEL ID   My Notifications   NotificationManager IMPORTANCE HIGH                   Configure the notification channel              notificationChannel setDescription  Channel description                notificationChannel enableLights true               notificationChannel setLightColor Color RED               notificationChannel setLockscreenVisibility Notification VISIBILITY PRIVATE               notificationChannel setVibrationPattern new long   0  1000  500  1000                notificationChannel enableVibration true               notificationManager createNotificationChannel notificationChannel                      NotificationCompat Builder notificationBuilder   new NotificationCompat Builder this  NOTIFICATION CHANNEL ID           Notification notification   notificationBuilder                  setOngoing true                   setAutoCancel true                   setWhen System currentTimeMillis                     setContentTitle  Foreground Service                    setContentText  Foreground Service Running                    setSmallIcon R drawable ic launcher                   setLargeIcon Bitmap createScaledBitmap icon  128  128  false                    setContentIntent pendingIntent                   setPriority NotificationManager IMPORTANCE MAX                   setCategory Notification CATEGORY SERVICE                   setTicker  Hearty365                    build            startForeground AppConstants NOTIFICATION ID FOREGROUND SERVICE                  notification     And if this notification channel get broken abruptly  may be by system  like in Xiomi devices when we clean out the background apps   then due to memory leaks this error is thrown by system

Have you used another UI thread  You shouldn t use more than 1 UI thread and make it look like a sandwich  Doing this will cause memory leaks   I have solved a similar issue 2 days ago     To keep things short  The main thread can have many UI threads to do multiple works  but if one sub-thread containing a UI thread is inside it  The UI thread may not have finished its work yet while it s parent thread has already finished its work  this causes memory leaks   For example   for Fragment  amp  UI application   this will cause memory leaks   getActivity   runOnUiThread new Runnable        public void run      No 1    ShowDataScreen     getActivity   runOnUiThread new Runnable         public void run      No 2  Toast makeText getActivity     This is error way  Toast LENGTH SHORT  show                end of No 2 UI new thread         end of No 1 UI new thread   My solution is rearrange as below   getActivity   runOnUiThread new Runnable        public void run      No 1  ShowDataScreen            end of No 1 UI new thread          getActivity   runOnUiThread new Runnable        public void run      No 2  Toast makeText getActivity     This is correct way  Toast LENGTH SHORT  show            end of No 2 UI new thread   for you reference   I am Taiwanese  I am glad to answer here once more

I had this issue and the cause was actually a NullPointerException  But it was not presented to me as one    my Output  screen was stuck for a very long period and ANR  My State   the layout xml file was included another layout  but referenced the included view without giving id in the attached layout   i had two more similar implementations of the same child view  so the resource id was created with the given name   Note   it was a Custom Dialog layout  so  checking dialogs first may help a bit   Conclusion   There is some memory leak happened on searching the id of the child view
