Context

I’m trying to build a version of the Wolvic XR Browser with the latest Chromium updates for our ARGO smart glasses platform.

1. I followed the developer workflow from (https://github.com/Igalia/wolvic/wiki/Developer-workflow#building-gecko) and built the wolvic project.
2. I was able to successfully build Gecko and add Gecko dependency to my android project.

The developer workflow is for building Gecko not Chromium. AFAIK we haven't published any docs about how to build the Chromium port (we should! but we haven't had time). Also you mention that you're using Gecko 124. The current version of Wolvic is still using 121 so we cannot offer any stability promise with that newer version. Last but not least there is no trace of the crash so very little we could do with this report.

Got it.

Let's say there's a prebuilt binary for the Chromium available, is there a way in the project to point to the Chromium build?

Yes you need to add chromium_aar=PATH_TO_DIR_WITH_CHROMIUM_AARS to the local.properties file
