Android agent v7.8.5

Improvements and enhancements

• The agent now starts only in your app's default process, so apps that declare extra processes with android:process no longer report empty sessions from them. (#648)

Bug fixes

• Fixed ANRs and other app exits reported on the next launch missing the background attribute when they happened while the app was in the background; the attribute is now true or false based on the app's state when the process exited. (#653)
• Fixed events recorded while the app was in the foreground being reported with background = true when they were sent in a batch harvested after the app moved to the background. With Background Reporting enabled, every event now carries background = true or background = false for the app's state at the moment it was recorded. Foreground events previously had no background attribute. (#655)
• Fixed a StackOverflowError crash on page load in apps whose WebView subclass overrides setWebViewClient to store the client and forward to it from its own internal client; the agent no longer installs its WebView client wrapper on such WebViews. (#660)
• Fixed an ANR at app startup where the agent read its saved events from disk on the main thread; they are now loaded in the background. (#661)

Support statement
