Question

* update: I don’t know why, but removing some unused imports apparently fixed it. *

When starting my app on older android versions (e.g. 2.2) I do get the following error log…

But I don’t get any errors on newer Android versions.

"at my.package.MainActivity.onCreate(MainActivity.java:12)"

is where my activity_main.xml is getting loaded, so I think there is something wrong with my

<fragment>

?

I don’t know why, but removing some unused imports apparently fixed it.
