UIAutomator Was Killed. No reason given #181
Description

I think this is the issue. If it finds 'Killed' word anywhere in the dump it thinks that it's about the uiautomator process
onlyKilledRE = re.compile('[\n\S]*Killed[\n\r\S]*', re.MULTILINE) if onlyKilledRE.search(received): ... raise RuntimeError('''ERROR: UiAutomator output contains no valid information. UiAutomator was killed, no reason given.''' + extraInfo)Try

You are correct!
If the word "Killed" is found anywhere inside the dump this issue happens.

android junit tests ui linux cult thin clientsrestarting adb server solved this issue for me.
try :
adb stop-server
adb start server
adb roo
and then try to take screen dump@Ganesh6773 what was the problem you were seeing and what was the command used?
Also, if you can specify adb version, android version, device model, etc. it would help identify your problem and solution.
I keep receiving this error.
RuntimeError: ERROR: UiAutomator output contains no valid information. UiAutomator was killed, no reason given.It seems to only happen sometimes. Other times, it's completely fine. Android 4.2.2
Here are my kwargs:
