The 3 above patches fix the cases I could observe that made Android
Viewer crash whenever trying to load a document (i.e. without selecting
"go-back").
There are certainly more ways in which the app can still crash, so can
you please retest whether it works when you "wait long enough" -- and
best use the latest daily build, which also includes a commit that makes
opening the first document after app installation faster. [1]

Since I could reproduce the issue you describe, I have opened a new bug
report to keep track of that scenario: tdf#131195 [2]
As a side note, there's also tdf#127781 where it is mentioned that a
self-compiled app for aarch64 still crashes for the reporter, but I was
not able to reproduce that so far.
