Google Store version of my app crashes

I;m not sure why but the Google play version of my app crashes upon opening when the normal apk doesn't. looking at the logcat sent back by a crash report it seems like it cant find the splash-screen class. which is weird. i have not touched the splash screen at all and the app worked before when got of google play.
i changed the version number from version 1 to version 2 since i couldn't have the same version number but would that be why it doesnt work?
here is the logcat from the crash report. i cannot duplicate this error when testing it in debug mode

You use Proguard? Except from obfuscation all method's name that you call in invoke()
For example add to proguard.cfg:
-keep class com.mypackagename.myActivity {
public static void myMethod( boolean, java.lang.String);
}
You must correct insert all parameters in method

FYI, an APK will act the same coming from teh Play store as if you deployed directly from your IDE or computer.
The Play store doesn't modify, add, or remove anything from your packaged app (APK). In other words, the APK downloaded from the Play store is identical to the one you uploaded from your computer.
Having said that, I think you have not exported your libraries with you APK. Looks like you have a library with LEEADS in it.
To fix this:
1. Right click on your project
2. Click 'Properties'
3. Click 'Java Build Path'
4. Select 'Order and Export' Tab
5. Make sure there is a check-mark next to 'Android Private Libraries'

Android Studio - add and reference the Google Play services library without Gradle [duplicate]

I'd like to import (and use) the Google Play Services library into an existing Android project, but I am struggling with what must be a dependency problem.
All documentation written by google is based upon Eclipse. We use IntelliJ IDEA.
Things I know:
I know how to import Modules, Libraries, add Dependencies, etc. in IntelliJ.
I also know that according to the getting started guide at Google, you have to add the google-play-services-lib into (Eclipse) as a project (by importing existing code into the workspace), and that you can do this in IntelliJ by adding a new module from existing code. It's the same procedure, different name.
I also understand what the Order and Export tab does in Eclipse (IntelliJ does it too).
Things I've done:
I copied (for safety) the google-play-services_lib folder from the Android SDK to my project root. So I have /myprj and /google-play-services_lib at the same level (I also have /facebooksdk and /actionbarsherlock at the same level) and proceeded to "Import Module" (from existing source). Then clicked next next next… (it worked, it was recognized).
The project structure looks like this (name intentionally blurred):
This correctly added a module (as you can see in the above screenshot). Now I need to add the dependency so my main project knows about this. I go to my modules and in the list, select my main module and then dependencies tab. I can see a few libraries (Joda time, android-query, gson, etc.) and two modules: FacebookSDK and actionbarsherlock. So far so good. And this is when things get weird.
Dependencies I've tried to add.
NOTE: In most cases I tried checking and unchecking the export checkbox and also tried adding this to the sherlockbar module at the same time, just for testing. I know these are a lot of combinations, but oh well.
1) Add a Jar or directory (knowing this was wrong, I tried). and pointed to the .jar that is inside the google play module /libs, named: google-play-services.jar.
2) Add a Library (and then adding it to the project(s))
3) Add the Module Dependency, (while having my main project selected). This shows you a pop-up like this:
PROBLEM
Even tho I can reference a PlusClient and I get the right imports, when I try to add a SignInButton in my layout xml, I get an error.
There's no point in pasting the whole XML Layout because it doesn't have anything strange, it's just a RelativeLayout with a few textviews. I added the g+ button like this:
<com.google.android.gms.common.SignInButton
android:id="#+id/sign_in_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/logo_login"
android:layout_marginBottom="30dip" />
Just like Google says.
The first sign that something may be out of order is the fact that IntelliJ warnings you that the element is "not valid here", but I assume that's a limitation of the visual designer rather than a real problem.
However, when I run the project, I get this:

If I remove the code from the Layout, it works.
My idea is that this has to do with the way Android handles the R(esources) and therefore it may not be finding the resource for the button.
Has anybody managed to use: Intellij Idea (12+) with ActionbarSherlock and Google+ Library?
If so, how? :)

For historical reasons, I'm going to reproduce what I did, taken from here. Many thanks to #Hesam who found it. I will vote to close the whole question.
Note: the shortcuts are for OS X and Intellij 12 and 13.
Make sure you have the latest SDK/ADT Tools and the play services. They change every now and then and are usually not backwards compatible.
UPDATE I had to do this again, so this is the polished version of what I did.
You need to have a copy (as opposed to using it directly from the SDK folder), because if Google updates it, things are going to break when you update your SDK, it's safer to keep a copy (albeit more tedious because you will have to manually update when a new version comes out). I found out that it's better to decide when to update than to be surprised with cryptic compilation errors.
With that in mind, copy the library alongside your project. You should have a folder structure that looks like:
/something/yourmainmodule/
/something/any_other_module/
/something/modules.xml
/something/README.md (if you use github) :)
The library is located in
"ANDROID-SDK"/extras/google/google_play_services/libproject/google-play-services_lib
ANDROID-SDK is wherever you stored the SDK when you downloaded it. Google changes this every now and then, so just find it, it will be there.
Copy that entire folder so your project now looks like this:
/something/yourmainmodule/
/something/any_other_module/
/something/google-play-services_lib/ <-- THIS IS THE NEW ONE
/something/modules.xml
/something/README.md
Good, now let's import it to IntelliJ-IDEA the right way:
1) Select your project/main module from project panel (⌘ 1) and hit ⌘ ↓ in order to open project structure window or just do File -> Project Structure.
2) Select Modules from left panel, then hit + button (or ⌘ N) then select "import module" and navigate to the google-play-services_lib that you just copied next to your project's module folder. (/something/).
The wizard will ask a series of questions, just hit next, defaults are fine, but read what's going on, understand what's happening, this is a core concept in Java, Android and Intellij. Experiment if you don't know what each dialog is saying (or why some may be empty).
After you're done, the google play Project will be added to Modules alongside with your project.
Don't close this window (or open it again if you did).
3) Still in the modules, select your project/module, then select "Dependencies" from right panel (it's a tab) and finally Click + button at the bottom (or ⌘ N which will work if you have the focus in this tab), then from the popup chose "3 Module dependencies..." and select "google-play-services_lib", which you added in the previous step. It should be there. If it's not, you didn't add the module in step 2.
4) Finally, Click + button again (or ⌘ N) but this time select "1 jars or directories...", navigate to the "/libs" folder of the above path and select "google-play-services.jar".
5) Click ok and close project structure window.
If you did this, your main module should have a dependency that looks like this:
Also make sure that in the Project Structure window, FACETS Tab, the Google Play Services has the "Library Module" checked. It is a library module.
Note: Make sure you have not added "google-play-services_lib" project as library in "Libraries" (left panel under Modules). If you have, you can go to "Libraries and simply remove it. Google Play Library Should Not Appear In Libraries.

Export android application occasionally packages the classes incorrectly

From Eclipse I righ cick the project, export the Android application and sign with a self generated keystore.
After export, occasionally I observe the APK file size is lesser than what I get normally.
When the APK file size is incorrect I encounter CNF exception for my application class i.e. DataSystem.
I extracted both correct & incorrect APKs.
With the help of dex2jar utility I converted the classes.dex to classes_dex2jar.jar and opened in java decompiler (jdgui).
I observe parent is clubbed with one of the child package and hence the other child classes of the parent does not exists.
Due to an incorrect packaging I face ClassNotFoundException on the launch of application.

As a precautionary measure, at the time of build I always observe the size of the APK if it is not normal I re-build it. But as my application is in development phase, the components are added/removed quite frequently and hence I do not have a fixed standard size to compare against, so to use this precaution is not practically possible always.
Is this a bug with ADT plugin? Please note, I am using latest revision i.e. 21.1.
Any help would be really appreciated.

If the issue only occurs on with signed APKs and you are using Eclipse to Export the Signed APK ...
Before you 'Export and sign an APK' in Eclipse turn off the following setting in the menu [Project > Build Automatically] (then can switch it back on later when you continue developing).

I recently deployed an update to my app, and a user reported a crash the very next day via the Google Play reporting facility. The stack dump was for LoadApk() and the error was in the loading of my Application class. Here is that dump:

I have a library and my Application class was defined in that library. The manifest for my app (which used the library) referred to the class in that library by its full path. It did not have an application class of its own.
All of my in-house testing had not reproduced this problem, and even when I tested (using the Samsung Remote Test Lab) on the same device (actually two different devices, one running 4.3 and one running 4.4.4) as reported the crash (a Galaxy Note II, running Android 4.4), there was no problem.
In searching for information on this I found mention of the fact that different devices may have slightly different approaches to resolving class references, and that is probably why most devices had no problem with my APK, but this particular device (which, unlike my test devices, was provided with its Android flavor by Sprint) did. And similarly, it may be why just one percent of your own customers had the problem, while most did not.
I decided that the best approach would be to make it as easy as possible for even an unsophisticated device to find the classes that were referenced from my manifest file. So, I defined a new application class within the package of the app itself (rather than the library) and I had that class inherit from the application class in my library. The new class was otherwise empty.
I then replaced the full path reference to the application class in the library with a relative reference to the new class I had created in the app itself. So, instead of having:
<application android:name="com.goalstate.WordGames.FullBoard.library.FullBoardApplication"
in my manifest, I had:
<application android:name=".FullBoardWordChumsApplication"
That (according to folklore on this topic) should make it easier for a less sophisticated resolution process to succeed.
I also took the full path that I had been using in the manifest to name my already-local activity class and made it relative (by simply lopping off everything preceding the final dot).
Additional folklore found online indicates that it may help to turn off "Build Automatically" for the project in Eclipse, then exit Eclipse, re-enter Eclipse, and then, after it rebuilds, go directly to Android Tools to export the signed APK (without ever turning on Build Automatically). So, throwing salt over my left shoulder, and saying a prayer to the gods of fragmentation paranoia, I accommodated this superstition in preparing my APK for release.
Does any of this really help? Time will tell, but so far my updated release has not generated any additional crashes.

This Error occurs when in your manifest file in application tag whatever class name you put it is not match with your coding java file .So make a current both in way.

The exception is caused by a simple System.loadLibrary("main");
What does it mean? cannot locate '__gnu_thumb1_case_uqi'

The __gnu_thumb1_case_uqi is a helper which does an indexed jump on a densely packed switch table; quickly implements the switch. You have two options: avoid it or link with it.
If you increase an optimization level (by using -O3) you might not need this symbol. Also, changing the CPU may help as well as using thumb2 instructions. Compiling with the -ffreestanding option may also avoid this symbol. If you have control over the switch statement, you can replace it with an array of function pointers.
This routine is inside libgcc. You can statically link libgcc. Somewhere in the Android SDK/compiler, there must be a libgcc.a. Link with libgcc.a, using -L and -l or use -static-libgcc linker option to get the code (see http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Link-Options.html).
Edit: If you aren't compiling anything, then you can find libgcc.so on your system. It might be in /lib or /usr/lib or perhaps some place weird for Android devices. Adding the directory where the libgcc.so is located to the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH could also fix the problem. It maybe unfortunate that Samsung released incompatible binaries and you have no way to fix the issue if you aren't compiling your own code. The correct libgcc.so maybe inside something like /usr/lib/thumb for multi-lib distributions. I don't know much about the Davlik stuff, but the Android JVM might not pointing to the right set of libraries when it runs.

Are you compiling for armv7? If you're not, try compiling for armv7.

Producing optimised NDK code for multiple architectures?
read about 'arm' vs 'thumb' in the accepted answer in the above link.
then, remove your config instructions to build for thumb and verify that you are building for arm...
OR...
