Android Question Can't find the problem

tufanv · Nov 3, 2018

Hello,

There is a trending crash report in my firebase crashlytics. Usually I can see the line number of main.java and find the correct line for b4a from this file , this error just shows this :

B4X:

Fatal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
uriString
android.net.Uri$StringUri.<init> (Uri.java:475)
android.os.Looper.loop (Looper.java:207)
android.app.ActivityThread.main (ActivityThread.java:5765)
java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke (Method.java)
com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main (ZygoteInit.java:679)

As I checked on the web it says it is a problem related parsing urls from any string but I can't understand how it is related. Is it possible to find the line for this problem ?

I have same error in multiple apps compiled with B4A v8.50.
Some of apps compiled with prior version don't have error like this.
Error is sporadic about 20 errors on 100k started instances.

I'm pretty sure that it is not related to B4A version. Noting in v8.50 that I can think of can cause such errors.

@Pendrush do you see this exact error message?

You are right, its related to SDK update, not B4A update.
This kind of error is new, first error is dated somewhere on end of September.
It's look like crash inside AdMob.

It looks like an issue internal to Google ads SDK.

The only thing you can do is to catch it with Application_Error.
