1. You should remove this line:

B4X:

CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.LightTheme)

2. Does the example work for you?
3. Have you added the #Extends line?

Hi Erel , Your exemple work fine.
I removed you mentioned line from manifest, and the error is the same.
Yes i added Extends line (#1 attachement):

B4X:

#Extends:android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity

1. Compare your project to the example project.
2. If you don't find the cause of this error then please upload the project.

Hi Erel, i attached the test project. The idea is that i would like to have a sliding menu in 2-nd screen if the BT connection is established.

1. You haven't done it properly. The manifest code misses a line.

2. All activities should include: #Extends: android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity
