Please provide the OS, kernel version, distribution and version of htop you are running. Additionally, if you could provide a backtrace from running htop via gdb (bt full) might be helpful. If possible, use a debug build to include proper debug information in the output.

For further debugging and confirmation try and reproduce the bug to check if it's present on other systems too.

The likely cause is the quite old kernel shipped together with Android. On a modern Linux kernel (6.11.*) this does not reproduce. Thus to narrow down a stacktrace would be heavily appreciated. It's very likely this is caused by the ancient kernel that modern Android images are based on.

P.S.: Text is preferred over images.
