Android & JNI_OnLoad lead to a crash on device

I am pretty new to working with JNI on Android, and I've been writing an app that requires the implementation of JNI_OnLoad.. I've perused the internet for help, and it seems like a lot of different documents conflict in how this function should be implemented. Nevertheless, I went with a method that seemed to work on my emulator but not on my device.

LogCat produces the following:

The following is my JNI_OnLoad implementation...

JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL JNI_OnLoad(JavaVM *vm, void *reserved)
{

    LOGI("Executing JNI_OnLoad");


    JNIEnv *env;
    jint onLoad_err = -1;
    jclass k;
    static const char* const strClassName="com/example/helloandroid/HelloAndroid";

    cached_jvm = vm;

    // Checks JNI version
    if((*vm)->GetEnv(vm, (void**) &env, JNI_VERSION_1_4) != JNI_OK){
        LOGE("JNI Check failure");
        return onLoad_err;
    }

    // Checks if environment is null
    if (env == NULL) {
        LOGE("Env is NULL");
        return onLoad_err;
    }

    k = (*env)->FindClass(env, strClassName);
    if(k == NULL){
        LOGE("Find Class returns NULL");
        return onLoad_err;
    }

    if ((*env)->RegisterNatives(env, k, methods, sizeof(methods)/sizeof(methods[0])) != JNI_OK){
        LOGE("Method registration failure");
        return onLoad_err;
    }

    LOGI("Successfully executed JNI_onLoad");
    return JNI_VERSION_1_4;
}

Is there something specific about native code that makes it act differently on an emulator than on an actual device? Or do I need to do more in JNI_OnLoad?

Thanks in advance!

There's nothing you should need to do to run on a device that isn't already done on the emulator.

I notice from your log that your device is an x86 type device. The emulator is an ARM processor... are you trying to run ARM code or x86 code on your device?
