Edit: The solution that worked for me is in a post below below but I also want to apologize, the following line of code was somehow omitted from the MeasureText function below.
TB.InitializeStatic("javafx.scene.text.TextBuilder")

I just updated from 8 to 11 and am getting the following error:

B4X:
Waiting for debugger to connect...

On this line: Bounds = TB.RunMethodJO("create",Null).RunMethodJO("text",Array(Text)).RunMethodJO("font",Array(TFont)).RunMethodJO("build",Null).RunMethodJO("getLayoutBounds",Null)
In this module:
B4X:
Sub MeasureText(Text As String,TFont As Font) As TextMetric
    Dim TB, Bounds As JavaObject
    Dim TM As TextMetric
     Bounds = TB.RunMethodJO("create",Null).RunMethodJO("text",Array(Text)).RunMethodJO("font",Array(TFont)).RunMethodJO("build",Null).RunMethodJO("getLayoutBounds",Null)

    TM.Width = Bounds.RunMethod("getWidth",Null)
    TM.Height = Bounds.RunMethod("getHeight",Null)
    Return TM
End Sub

TB doesn't appear to be set to anything, maybe you missed a line.

TB.RunMethodJO(... is meaningless unless TB is set to an object or class.

SOLUTION:

LucaMs Link
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/measure-text.45750/
To stevel05 post works well and is a drop in replacement.

B4X:
Sub MeasureText(Text As String,TFont As Font) As TextMetric
    Dim TM As TextMetric
    Dim Helper As JavaObject
    Helper.InitializeNewInstance("javafx.scene.text.Text", Array(Text))
    Helper.RunMethod("setFont",Array(TFont))
    Helper.RunMethod("setLineSpacing",Array(0.0))
    Helper.RunMethod("setWrappingWidth",Array(0.0))
    Dim Bounds As JavaObject = Helper.RunMethod("getLayoutBounds",Null)
    TM.Width = Bounds.RunMethod("getWidth",Null)
    TM.Height = Bounds.RunMethod("getHeight",Null)
    Return TM
End Sub

The code above works - I found the final solution he posted failed unless I remmed the line for prefheight so it only returned the width, and the speed was about the same as the one above.
