Question

I have an activity (BookMarks) that is called from main activity. BookMarks throw an exception (not all the time) I can’t figure out what this exception means.

I/ActivityManager(  181): START {cmp=com.unreal.muslim/.BookMarks} from pid 25558
I/WindowManager(  181): createSurface Window{41fbf070 Loading...  paused=false}: DRAW NOW PENDING
I/WindowManager(  181): createSurface Window{41da2230 com.unreal.muslim/com.unreal.muslim.BookMarks paused=false}: DRAW NOW PENDING

Can anyone help me understand this exception and a possible solution to fix it?

Answer 1

I think this is your problem

E/bm run catch(25558): Only the original thread that created a view hierarchy can touch its views.

Where are you setting your Adapter for your ListView? Also, could you post code from your Activity?
