Minecraft PE 0.16.2 crashes when attempting to log into MC Win 10 host over LAN

Android LG G 7 tablet crashes 100% of the time when attempting to log into a Minecraft Windows 10 hosted world over LAN. Tried unloading all texture packs on the Win10 machine and play on default and still the MCPE game will crash. This doesn't happen the other way around as the Win10 version can enter and play a LAN hosted world in Android.Crash also happens when loading resource packs to the tablet (purchased resource packs)

More details on the bug being faced:
1. Tablet is LG G Pad 7
2. MCPE Updated to 0.16.2
3. Issue is: after a couple of seconds after opening a world, MCPE crashes without warning or error message.
4. First observed when trying to connect the android tablet to a Windows 10 MC over LAN. No screenshots available, the game just crashes and returns to main screen.
5. If a resource pack is used in the win 10 machine, the android client asks to either download or just join. On both situations, the crash takes place.
6. Tried unloading all resource packs on both machines... crash still happens
7. The android client works by itself, without resource packs
8. Tried activating Nature Resource Pack which was purchased at the store on the tablet... the crash happened again.
9. In the PC, the Win10 version works fine on all those situations.
10. Tried the android tablet without resource packs and the Win10 as well, the crash still took place.

I'd test moving the android client to a samsung tablet with more resources but I refuse to purchase another license for testing porposes... i already purchased 2.

I identified two situations in which the tablet client is crashing down: multiplayer over LAN and handling of resource packs. Tablet has 6GB free storage. This never happened prior to 0.16.0.

Please address the issue... I have a six year old asking me to remove minecraft "forever" because it doesn't work...

Update:
I was able to move MCPE out of the 1GB RAM LG G 7 tablet and install it on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 with 3GB RAM and buala! Everything works fine so it's either a memory leak or your game is no longer fit for 1 GB RAM...

Do not close the issue... MInecraft 0.16.? doesn't work on my 1GB RAM LG Tablet... I had to switch tablets with my son to calm down the situation so I lost that one...

Thank you for your report!

Crashes such as these are now logged automatically, so will be investigated further by the development team internally.
