Android Question webviewextras geolocation fatal signal problem

I kindly as your help for a problem i have with webviewextras. I develop a wrapper android app for a map application. i have a webview, added chrome client and enabled javascript. for testing purposes, the webview only loads maps.google.com page and whenever i press find user location in the page, the application exits with the error below. is this a common problem and do you know a solution to this?
basically what i need is to load a map app in the webview and find the geolocation of the user and show it on the map. i checked the examples and gave neccesary permissions in the manifest editor, but i still get this fatal signal
