MediaRecorder.getSurface() terminates foreground service

I am trying to get screen recording work from a foreground service, with media recorder calling this method:

@RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
private void startRecording(int resultCode, Intent data) {
    Log.v(TAG, "Starting recording...");

    MediaProjectionManager mProjectionManager = (MediaProjectionManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService (Context.MEDIA_PROJECTION_SERVICE);
    mMediaRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
    mMediaRecorder.setOnErrorListener(this::onRecorderError);
    mMediaRecorder.setOnInfoListener(this::onRecorderInfo);

    DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics();
    WindowManager wm = (WindowManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(WINDOW_SERVICE);
    wm.getDefaultDisplay().getRealMetrics(metrics);

    int mScreenDensity = metrics.densityDpi;
    int displayWidth = metrics.widthPixels;
    int displayHeight = metrics.heightPixels;

    mMediaRecorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.SURFACE);
    mMediaRecorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.MPEG_4);
    mMediaRecorder.setVideoEncoder(MediaRecorder.VideoEncoder.H264);
    mMediaRecorder.setVideoEncodingBitRate(8 * 1000 * 1000);
    mMediaRecorder.setVideoFrameRate(15);
    mMediaRecorder.setVideoSize(displayWidth, displayHeight);

    Log.v(TAG, "Recorder parameters done");

    String videoDir = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(DIRECTORY_MOVIES).getAbsolutePath();
    Long timestamp = System.currentTimeMillis();

    String orientation = "portrait";
    if( displayWidth > displayHeight ) {
        orientation = "landscape";
    }
    String filePathAndName = videoDir + "/time_" + timestamp.toString() + "_mode_" + orientation + ".mp4";

    mMediaRecorder.setOutputFile( filePathAndName );

    Log.v(TAG, "Recorder output path done, prepairing...");

    try {
        mMediaRecorder.prepare();
    } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    Log.v(TAG, "Recorder prepaired");
    Surface surface = mMediaRecorder.getSurface(); //Stops here
    Log.v(TAG, "Surface ready");
    mMediaProjection = mProjectionManager.getMediaProjection(resultCode, data);
    Log.v(TAG, "Media projection ready");
    mVirtualDisplay = mMediaProjection.createVirtualDisplay("MainActivity",
            displayWidth, displayHeight, mScreenDensity, VIRTUAL_DISPLAY_FLAG_AUTO_MIRROR,
            surface, null, null);
    Log.v(TAG, "Display ready");
    mMediaRecorder.start();

    Log.v(TAG, "Started recording");
}

But when i call mMediaRecorder.getSurface(), activity just stops completly, no exceptions, no callbacks from mMediaRecorder, not even calling onDestory() of my service, but the app itself keeps running

It is as if service just stops working at all

What am i doing wrong? I am testing on android 9.1.0.181C10 HUAWEI LLD-L31
