Comment (by n8fr8):

 I don't have more time to respond right now, but please try the
 "0.3.5.8-rc-v2" tor-android-binary gradle dependency as it has some fixes.

 In summary, we are trying to rely on the native library loading that
 Android provides, and executing the .so files in places, instead of
 unpacking them from the APK ourselves and/or copying them over or to the
 app's r/w file space. This is due to changes in Android Q that requires
 this.
