Bug description

Consistently getting "Patching Failed - Patcher process exited with code 139" when I try to patch relay for reddit. (note this is my first time doing this with morphe. With reddit deleting api keys I need to repatch for the first time in a couple years using the RedReader one I got via patcheddit readme instructions). It gets through like 3 or 4 times of applying patches/executing patches, then errors with the mentioned message. The patcher logs during execution look like this a few times times, then into error screen:

Applying patches...
Executing patches
[STDIO]: Lcom/applovin/impl/adview/b$2;->run

I reviewed two previous issues which seemed to be same symptoms:

But when I tried tweaking the settings mentioned it didn't seem to help at all. Any memory limit I tried (minimum of 512, middling memory of 768, and max of 1280) just gives the same 139 error. Tried disabling process runtime, and in that case morphe just hard crashes during the first "executing patches" step. Also tried both root mount and standard install, still same 139 error.

I tried exporting the logs from Import & export>Debug>Export, it prompts me for root, I grant one time, and it errors with "Failed to read logs (exit code 1)". I checked and it writes file, but the logcat part of the file is empty. Still gave it below though if the system info is helpful. Let me know if there's anything else I can attach that'd be helpful or if there's something I can do to get the logcat given I'm seeing an error trying to pull the debugging information.
