Android Question Google Console Crash Report

[ilan]

hi

i saw today that on 3 devices my app crashed. according to the crash report a label was used before it was intialized and also "Load Layout" is mentioned in that report and from what i know Views that were created via designer should not be intialized so what could be the problem?

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Object should first be initialized (Label).

And of course the label is declared in globals before you do something with it, right ?
Me too have a crazy situation (not jet solved) here
It's different but someway analog.
Probably it has nothing to deal with, but I feel I started to have this funny problem when I started to use the Starter service. Are you using it too ?

 

[ilan]

Starter service. Are you using it too ?

i am using the starter service only for callsubplus.

It crashed while loading the layout.

Do the crashes happen on any specific Android version?

 

[ilan]

Yes erel on android 4.4 (all 7 crash reports and 3 different devices) all run android 4.4

Is this the first time you see this error? Have you recently updated the app? What is the targetSdkVersion set to?

 

[ilan]

this is the first time i see an error that is related to Load Layout but i have not really looked very close on all my crash reports.

if i remember correctly minSDK = 11 and TargetSDK = 19

(minsdk = 11 is because i am using accelerated surface and the hardware support is only from api 11 available)

according to informatix thread:

This library does not work with Android versions < 2 (Eclair and Froyo may exhibit performance problems, so I recommend only Gingerbread or a newer version for animations with a high FPS).
The hardware acceleration is not enabled with Android versions < 3.

It failed to create one of the labels for some reason. Can you test your project on an Android 4.4 device?

Hi @ilan. I have a device (Sony Xperia E1) with Android 4.4.2.
I download the app in Google Play and works fine.

thanx @asales but i think this happns only on android 4.4 and i have the felling it has something to do with:

SetApplicationAttribute(android:theme, "@android:style/Theme.Material")

 

[Erel]

That's true. See my answer here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/google-play-developer-console-pre-launch-debug.68216/
