StrictMode policy violation: android.os.StrictMode$StrictModeDiskReadViolation: policy=327711 violation=2 at Application super.onCreate

When I turn on the strict mode detect All, my App crashes super.onCreate() of application (i.e. before even I have any of my code doing anything).

My application onCreate turning on the strict mode as below

override fun onCreate() {
    if (BuildConfig.DEBUG) {
        StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(
                StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder()
                        .detectAll()
                        .penaltyLog()
                        .penaltyDeath().build())
        StrictMode.setVmPolicy(
                StrictMode.VmPolicy.Builder()
                        .detectAll()
                        .penaltyLog()
                        .penaltyDeath().build())
    }
    super.onCreate()

    // Some other code
}

The error I got (which is on the line of super.onCreate())

D/StrictMode: StrictMode policy violation; ~duration=98 ms: android.os.StrictMode$StrictModeDiskReadViolation: policy=327711 violation=2

Is this an expected error we should ignore, or is this something that we should fix?

Here is my Java version

public class StrictModeManager {

private static boolean enabled = false;

private StrictModeManager() {}

public static void enableStrictMode() {
    enabled = true;
    StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder threadPolicyBuilder = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder()
            .detectDiskReads()
            .detectDiskWrites()
            .detectNetwork()
            .penaltyLog()
            .penaltyDropBox();

    StrictMode.VmPolicy.Builder vmPolicyBuilder = new StrictMode.VmPolicy.Builder()
            .detectLeakedSqlLiteObjects()
            .detectLeakedClosableObjects()
            .detectLeakedRegistrationObjects()
            .penaltyLog()
            .penaltyDropBox()
            .penaltyDeath();

    StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(threadPolicyBuilder.build());
    StrictMode.setVmPolicy(vmPolicyBuilder.build());

}

public static void allowDiskReads(Runnable runnable) {
    StrictMode.ThreadPolicy oldThreadPolicy = null;
    if (enabled) {
        oldThreadPolicy = StrictMode.getThreadPolicy();
        StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder(oldThreadPolicy).permitDiskReads().build());
    }
    runnable.run();
    if (oldThreadPolicy != null) StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(oldThreadPolicy);
   }
}

And to use it:

@Override
public void onCreate() {
    if (BuildConfig.DEBUG) StrictModeManager.enableStrictMode();
    StrictModeManager.allowDiskReads(App.super::onCreate);

    // Code here
}

Move the statement 'super.onCreate()' before the StrictMode methods in fun onCreate(). Check this article for details. Walk through hell with Android StrictMode

Apparently the error are device specific. It happens on Samsung S7, but not Nexus 6P. Hence it's not something I would be fixing. Hence the best way to suppress it.

The below is the example how I got it suppressed. You could wrap those functions into an Util Class.

override fun onCreate() {
    turnOnStrictMode()
    permitDiskReads{
        super.onCreate()
    }

    // Some other code
}


fun turnOnStrictMode() {
    if (BuildConfig.DEBUG) {
        StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(
                StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder()
                        .detectAll()
                        .penaltyLog()
                        .penaltyDeath().build())
        StrictMode.setVmPolicy(
                StrictMode.VmPolicy.Builder()
                        .detectAll()
                        .penaltyLog()
                        .penaltyDeath().build())
    }
}

fun permitDiskReads(func: () -> Any) : Any {
    if (BuildConfig.DEBUG) {
        val oldThreadPolicy = StrictMode.getThreadPolicy()
        StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(
                StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder(oldThreadPolicy)
                .permitDiskReads().build())
        val anyValue = func()
        StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(oldThreadPolicy)

        return anyValue
    } else {
        return func()
    }
}

Refers to this for more detail.
