It might be helpful if you update the Guidlines to advise reporters to search and check that a still open issue is not a duplicate before adding a comment to it just as you advise searching before adding a new issue.
I have fallen into this trap a few times now (blush), adding comments to a ticket that has been recently added or updated but has not yet been caught and closed by admin as a duplicate, only to see it resolved as a dupe some time after commenting on it.
Can replicate on two different Realms worlds. In both cases, the buggy chest was attached to a hopper that was collecting drops from a monster farm. When trying to open the chest the game crashes to desktop.
I've also seen this in realms. Not all hopper chests seem to be effected, but does seem to be a higher probability that this is the case. Have seen the crash happen on non-hopper chests. Running v16 on iPhone 6 & iPad pro.
I'm also experiencing this bug in SINGLE PLAYER (survival and creative). I've 3 chests with the same problem. I've tried to add a hopper leading to a new chest - it started transfering items when suddenly came up to an specific item that, when moved, crashes the game. Also tried to explode it with TNT - same result, game crashes at explosion. Running V0.16.2 on Nexus 4 (LG)
I am having this same issue in Survival.
I had a double chest under two hoppers for a mob spawn trap. If I open chest it would freeze the game. I was able to break one of the chests off and it was fine. I then tried to break the other and it froze. I tried to open the single chest and it froze.
I then recreated the spawn trap directly above the freezing chest and it worked fine for one play session. Now the new setup freezes to desktop if I try to open the double chest. The original chest that froze the game still freezes and returns to desktop.
I tried this on 12-1-16 with update 0/16/2 and issue still exists.
TL;DR: Have same issue with double hopper on top of double chest at mob spawn trap. Chest freezes game.
Affected a single player on Windows 10 Beta (0.16.2), and Android when on realms.
Chest connected to hopper on mob farm, open chest game instantly crashes, also affected a friend on my realm with iOS version (iPad). Removed the hoppers, same issue, even when trying to break the chest it crashes....
Please resolve
I have this same problem, the chest is connected to a hopper on my mob farm and when i try to open the chest it instantly crashes out of the app. I wouldn't be so bothered by the problem if i hadnt fallen into the farm and been killed over the hopper, so now all my things are in that chest...
This is also still affectin 1.0.0 the new version on local on phone, and Windows 10 Beta, and my realm. No change since the release
Makes making farms a pain!
This is still an issue. I see it hasn't been assigned yet; hoping another comment will bring more attention to it. I'd be more than happy to upload my map with the broken chest/hopper.
MC Windows 10 Edition Version 1.0
The developers are aware of the chest crash bugs being reported. Please note that MCPE tickets on the bug tracker are no longer assigned to specific developers, but that does not mean that they are not looking into the issue.
Still affect 1.0.2 on both Windows, and Android
Affects 1.0.2 on IOS. In one of my survival worlds opening any chest crashes game for me the host. If a player joins the same world they are able to open the chest and see the contents. I am able to destroy the chests without crashing.
A little bit of an update. I thought since in another user connected to my world was able to open chests without issue it might have been an item I was carrying. So I started to drop everything in in my inventory however now my game crashes as soon as I load it. It seems to be related to the last item I put in one of the quick select slots. Now when I load the world it crashes all I see before the app closes is a torch as if I had it selected as the active item and nothing in my quick select before it crashes
I'd like to add that this suddenly started happening in my 1 realm. I'm able to open chests fine in my personal worlds, but in my realm every time I try to open a chest, the game crashes on my iPad. I have iOS 10.2.1. I've tried rebooting my iPad & uninstalling/reinstalling Minecraft PE. No luck, still crashes when I try to open a chest in a realm.
Is this still happening for you in 1.0.4.11?
Also, any crashes that occur are logged automatically and sent to Mojang for further investigation.
@Aspergerian
I just tested and I still have the freeze in 1.0.4.
Still happening on latest version of IOS and Minecraft PE.
Crash occurring after picked up nether brick or blaze rod then tried to go into a chest. once moved the items into quick slot game now crashes as soon as the world is loaded. v1.0.7

+my tuppence worth.
Crashing chest since long time ago (see
MCPE-21375&MCPE-18516for details).Crashes if interacted with in any way including via opening, destruction, hoppers, etc.
This specific chest contains 64 Air in slot1 (programatically slot0), others have explicitly mentioned Air in a chest slot making the game crash also, so that is one cause of chest crashes clearly identified.
Maybe delete that slots contents while loading the chunk in a similar method used to update unnamed maps to be called Map 0?
Update: (Android 6.0)
Awesome!! Fixed in 1.1.0.9, I was able to destroy this chest with an axe without the crash. Many thanks Devs!
Update 2:
I had a crash in game and rollback (leaving to auto report/upload)
This gave me the chance to test opening this chest rather than destroying it, this worked also so great
Pictures added just for the sheer pleasure of seeing this fixed

Et Voila!:
Does this issue still affect the latest version? Please reply if it does.
Yes. So happy. The issue for me has been resolved. Can finally dig around in my chest again and it not crash.
Very happy the team was able to get this figured out and solved.
