SharedPreferences pref = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = pref.edit();
float highscore = pref.getFloat("highscore",0.0f);
As soon as I enter the activity that uses this part, the app crashes. According to logcat, that first line in this code block gives a nullpointerException. If it's important, this part comes after OnCreate, and I'm using Android Studio.

Reason:
May be you are using this code from a fragment or on other thread. You Need to pass a activity context reference as an argument. The argument this is the problem.
Solution:
You need to pass the activity / context as the argument
SharedPreferences pref =
PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(Your_Activity_Name.this);
I solved this myself a long time ago, but then I realized that this was left unanswered. Apparently, I'm supposed to put all SharedPrefences code in onCreate.

Please add your Activity in your AndroidManifest.xml. like below code:
<activity android:name=".activities.MainActivity"/>
Also put the findViewById() after setContentView() so it can actually return something other than null.
You can't initialize the textView before call "setContentView" method. I recommend you create a "init" method where initialize all layout's elements and call it after "setContentView"

A NullPointerException occurs when you try to access something not yet defined.
Like for eg. trying to setText in a textview before assigning it in the activity with the id in the xml.
I'm using a code snippet to access a Zip File containing APK file . It works fine in Debug Mode, but, throws Exception in Release Mode.
ZipFile zip = new ZipFile(file);
ZipEntry mft = zip.getEntry("AndroidManifest.xml");
is = zip.getInputStream(mft);
It doesn't make any issue if released in Debug Mode. But, in Release Mode, app gets crashed.

I should see the code but I think you are sending some extra data to your fragment. The class of your object that is being sent should implement Serializable.
