Exception in Facebook Like button for android apps

I have setup correctly the facebook SDK for facebook like button. It works fine on one phone (Android 4.3) but gives an exception on the other (Android 4.4.4)
The exception is as:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.compzets.popopics/com.compzets.popopics.ui.MainPagerActivity}: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #80: Error inflating class com.facebook.widget.LikeView

It gives a ClassNotFoundException, I have no clue as to why it happens? And if there is an issue then why it isn't reflected on both phones.

I faced a similar issue some days back and the following solved it:
Removed compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:3.21.1' from the dependencies in gradle
Synced it
Added the same dependency again
Again Synced it
Hope this works for you as well!

Getting FATAL EXCEPTION in extended calendar

Kindly let me know if i need to post code.
XML for calendar view as follows
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#FFFFFF"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<provider
android:name="com.tyczj.extendedcalendarview.CalendarProvider"
android:authorities="com.tyczj.extendedcalendarview.calendarprovider" />
<com.tyczj.extendedcalendarview.ExtendedCalendarView
android:id="#+id/calendar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</RelativeLayout>

provider is a tag that has to be declared in the AndroidManifast.xml file of your project for declaring ContentProviders and not in the layout file.
provider is not an xml tag that is why your exception stack states the cause to be provider class not found.

right click on project->Build path->configer Build path-> order and export-> checked all option->press OK...
Now try to run your project

Obviously the bitmap you have assigned to your image view is too large to be loaded in your app space. You have to find an alternative way.
Generally for large bitmaps, it's not a good idea to assign them in the XML. Inflation of the XML happens in the UI thread and loading a large bitmap, even if it does not cause OOM, will cause occasional ANR.
I HIGHLY suggest you to read this article, it gives you very valuable lessons how to deal with images in Android in the right way.

ClassNotFoundException when inflating non-compatibility fragment

My application keeps crashing on launch due to what seems to me to be an odd error. I have included the logcat below as well as the relevant layout but as you can see there is an inflate exception caused by a class not found exception for class android.view.fragment. I am not using compatibility fragments (the app does not support pre-ICS) and so everything is expecting android.app.Fragment. All of the other posts I have been able to find suggest using FragmentActivity but that is not a solution here as we do not use the support library. Does anyone have any insight?
The layout file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/locations"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<!-- Some views here -->
<!-- The line below is line 38 referenced in the LogCat -->
<fragment
android:id="#+id/ad_fragment"
android:name="tenkiv.billing.AdFragment"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
tools:layout="#layout/ad_fragment_view" />
</RelativeLayout>
And the LogCat output:
FATAL EXCEPTION: main

I am not sure by try giving fully qualified name like this
<fragment android:id="#+id/fragmentDetails"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
class="tenkiv.billing.AdFragment"/>

Please make sure that in your FragmentActivity class you also call the onCreate method from the super class:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
....
}

This problem could be caused by silly things like typos or strange invisible characters getting injected in your xml tags. In my case, the cause was a typo in my "fragment" opening tag. I had "frsgment" instead and of course Android Studio didn't raise a flag. It took me a while to figure out. Not good!
