Comment (by LukasThyWalls):

 So, if it happens in other 4.1.x devices i think the best it's to drop
 4.1.x and rise the minimal requirements. I would like to still use it in
 this tablet, or at least a much updated version, but that's life.

 I only can say that with 2.7.0.2 doesn't work in my tablet (like i said
 Arnova AN10DG3 with Android 4.1.1/Uberdroid 1.3.5, so API16), but ScummVM
 2.2.0 works (although, alonside 2.1.1 it shows the window in a weird
 resolution, with 2.1.0 it appears normal, as i showed in the screenshots),
 as i just tested every main release between 2.7.0.2 and 2.1.0 downloading
 the APKs from the archive directly.

 It seems the issue (or issues) making it crash above 2.2.1 (the first one
 with the OP crash it seems) where fixed in 2.7.0.2, but in all this time
 there where other issues or incompatibilities introduced that were
 inadvertently appearing, with some being quite likely unfixable at this
 point.
 Could be those fixes introduced in 2.7.0.2 could be backported to other
 versions between 2.2.1 and 2.6.1, and maybe they make it work those
 versions, but i don't think it is worth the effort to do it, only if
 anyone specifically needs it.
