I've read as many search results I could find on this dreaded problem, unfortunatelly, each one seems to focus on a specific function call.

My problem is that I get the same error from multiple functions, which I am guessing are being called back from functions that I use.

To make matters worse, the actual code is within a custom private framework which is being imported in another project, and as such, debugging isn't as simple?

Can anyone point me to the right direction? I have a feeling I'm calling certain methods wrongly or with bad context, but the output from xcode is not very helpful at this point.

Those errors may occur when a custom view is presented, or one of its inherited classes. At which point they spawn multiple times, until the keyboard won't provide any input. Touch events are still registered, but system slows down, and eventually may lead to unallocated object errors.
