Android Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0x636f7d89 (code=1). How can it be tracked down?

Question

I\'ve been reading the other posts on tracking down the reasons for getting a SIGSEGV in an Android app. I plan to scour my app for possible NullPointers relate

I was getting this error by saving an object to the shared preferences as a gson converted string. The gson String was no good, so retrieving and deserializing the object was not actually working correctly. This meant any subsequent accesses to the object resulted in this error. Scary :)
