The device is iPhone 6s Plus with iOS 9.2. Using Titanium Studio, when I run in debug mode and stepping through code, the app runs fine. However, when I simply "run" it (device connected to laptop via USB) or install the .ipa file in adhoc distribution, the app crashes as soon as it is launched. There is absolutely no log generated in Titanium when "run". And there is little to no relevant information in Xcode too when the installed .ipa is run. Here is the log from Xcode:

Mar 18 09:42:52 ThisUser-iPhone-6s-Plus SpringBoard[58] <Warning>: [MPUSystemMediaControls] Updating supported commands for now playing application.
I've searched through other posts, some of whom point to "Javascript Minification" (which I turned off but still got the crash) and some talk about "Fastest, Smallest [-Os]" for Release in Code Generation section of Xcode's Build setting (which I don't know how to control since I'm using Appcelerator Titanium to build the app). Several others discuss specific code issues as revealed by the log. Since I get nothing in the log files that I can tell of significance, I'm not sure where to look.
Any help is appreciated.
UPDATE on March 21, 2016:
It took me a while to figure out the culprit. Here are the steps to reproduce the issue:
1) In Titanium Studio, create a new Mobile App project using Alloy Default template.
2) Run the newly created project as-is to a USB attached iPhone 6s Plus (or probably ANY ios device).
3) Click on the app icon on the device and the app will launch just fine with Hello World on the screen.
4) Now go to the TiApp.xml file and edit it by adding the following parameter:
<property name="appc-sourcecode-encryption-policy">embed</property>
5) Now run the modified project to the USB attached device.
6) Open the app and you will notice that it crashes right after the splash screen shows briefly.
It seems the property above does not work properly. Opened JIRA ticket AC-3389.
It looks like a provisioning issue. Check this thread which deals with a similar error.
If that does not help, please provide some more details like sample code and detailed crash logs (full trace-log). Thanks!

We have an app on iPad Air wifi model running ios 9.2 that worked fine since February. At 28th June the app starts to crash on startup when the ipad is not connected to the Internet.
The app starts up fine when connected to the Internet, and once it started up once, we can close it, disconnect the Internet and can now launch it normally offline.
When we adhoc the app to another iPad running ios12, the app launches fine offline. The client wants this fixed without updating the os.
This is the log when it crashed.

I have experienced a strange behavior on a demo app i've done.
I'm learning how to develop apps with cordova, i developed a really simple demo app and i installed it with "RUN" of the xcode, in my iPhone 5S with iOS 9.3.
At first the app works really well but after a few days the app starts closing/crashing after the splashscreen.
The app stays in background but when i try to bring it up it closes/crashes again.
-- UPDATE --
After using Configurator for logging i got this :

I am installing the .mobileconfig using the safari.
But, sometimes when I arouse the safari, it will navigation to the install the mobileconfig page.
The screen will freeze on the white screen, that does not show the install button on the right top.
like below:
Have anyone had encounter the same problem?
My code to call the safari is using below code:
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://127.0.0.1:777/myconfig.mobileconfig"];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication]openURL:url];
I had copy the error command log like below:

Maybe can give you some hint.
Are you installing OVER other profiles or along with others? I've replaced mine a few times now and iOS 9.1 doesn't like it for me on the iPhone 6+.
The only (want most painless) way I've found is to remove the old profiles before I install new ones via Xcode
On Xcode:
1) Click on the "Window" menu
2) Click on "Devices"
3) Wait for your Device (devices) to load .. Oh make sure they're plugged in! hah
4) Right click on the device you need to change profiles on
5) Click on "Show provisioning profiles"
In there you can add and delete profiles safely :)
edit
The other options is what's called OTAC (over the air configuration)... It's exactly what happens when your mobile phone provider sends you new APN settings and it asks you to install the settings "out of the blue"...
The docs are here:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/iPhoneOTAConfiguration/Introduction/Introduction.html
The only issue you'll have is that this isn't something you can do on the simulator so you'd better create "dummy profiles" to avoid replacing your development or production ones.
Another note, I did find this post on here: Installing a configuration profile on iPhone - programmatically
When launching my iOS app from a deeplink (a URL with app specific scheme), I get this error in log:
lsd[738] <Warning>: LaunchServices: application launch failed - timeout waiting for launch.
when the app is launched normally, there is no error.
There is no other log regarding the root of the timeout.
I am looking at the log coming from a device.
Here is the full log:

This was only happening when launching the app when the app was not already in the background. I filed a bug with Apple. This issue is supposedly fixed in iOS 9 beta 4. Unfortunately, older versions of iOS will continue to have this problem.
My app has some kind of Zombie problem. (Not an NSZombie problem. Like, a coming-back-from-the-dead problem.)
I first noticed that after a debugging session, when I would go for a run the music on my iPhone would pause every ~7 minutes, and when I'd unlock the device the app name would be flashing red in the status bar as though it had just crashed. Sometimes there would even be phantom sound from the app, like it was still running in the background somehow.
Manually quit the app, continue. Still get the intermittent audio artifacts even though the app no longer appears in my list of running apps.
When I plug back in, this is in the console for each time the app zombified and restarted itself. It looks just like a normal launch of the app! What the? What could be triggering my app to restart itself?

Explanation of the solution: It turned out to be simple - 1. I was shutting down my audio session in dealloc but not in applicationDidEnterBackground. And since I'm using kaudiosessioncategory_playandrecord that seems to tell iOS to restart the app if it crashes in the background.
Now, why is it crashing in the background? ...well, that's my next task.
The app may have a background voip flag set. If it does, the OS will restart the app if it exits abnormally (or when the device restarts).
what audio framework are you using? the iPod app, GarageBand and other audio apps present red flashing in the title bar when audio processing continues after exiting the app. This wouldn't happen with Cocos Denshion I don't think, so you must be using an Apple framework for your audio? The answer likely lies with how it is configured. Apple gives some of its own audio frameworks permission to keep running when in the background so you can have customized music playing, like apps for radio stations, etc.
We will probably need code snippets also as the logs don't tell us what code is executed
