QGC Android Build Crashes Immediately

Question

I am able to successfully build QGC for android using version "Stable_V4.3". I am trying to run it on my device but it always crashes with this error in the Application Output:

"org.mavlink.qgroundcontrol2" died.

I am using Windows 11 with Qt version 5.15.2 and Qt Creator 11.0.3.

SDK Build tools default to 34 but I have tried to run it with 25 too (same error) Device APK level : 25 NDK : 21 CompileSDK Version defaults to 31, tried it with 25. Still fails.

Another thing is that the same build runs successfully on Android Emulator, arm-architectured (APK 25).

The error occurs on both debug and release version.
