android.renderscript.RSRuntimeException Fatal error 4097

Question

I'm getting the following crash from renderscript on android:

100% of the crashes are on android 11 and 96% of the crashes are on Samsung devices. I removed all instances of renderscript, but this crash is still happening so maybe it's in one of my dependencies.

I found this got android.renderscript.RSRuntimeException on note4 which says that 4097 means a fatal driver error, but doesn't give any details on how to fix it.

Does anyone know how I can fix this crash?

UPDATE: when I search for "renderscript" in my app nothing comes up unless I put it on scope and then there's a bunch of references to it. I don't understand where they're coming from though

UPDATE: To be clear, I have removed all references to renderscript from my app but it seems like one or multiple of my dependencies are still using it. I need help isolating these dependencies. Something called android-30 is using renderscript. Is this the api 30 library or something? And then something called support/v8 is using renderscript. Is this the support library? (I do have support library enabled)

Migrate from RenderScript

RenderScript APIs are deprecated starting in Android 12. They will continue to function, but we expect that device and component manufacturers will stop providing hardware acceleration support over time.

It seems to be a vendors issue (Driver issue)
