NullPointer exception when resuming app on android

I am currently testing an app. This is the test case. Load the app and then go to google leader board. Then press home button and do some other tasks. Then come back to the app again by clicking on the app icon. When I do this I still see the previously loaded leaderboard. Afterwards if I click back button on the leaderboard to resume the app following exception occurs.
I have also listed the logcat output. I can't debug this to see whats null because dubug has been detached before this event. What can I do to solve this?

Use try catch to get more info.
Did You save some Data in Application or Static Utils?
Because the page before You leader board is kill by System. When you back from Leader board,System rebuild it.
But some data become null.
In this case , you may use some data is null.
Simplely:
Add a check before you get data from Util.
public getA(){
if(a = null){a = b;}
return a;
}

Genymotion 2.5 doesnt work with the API16/17 PlayServices

a lot of trouble come up this evening when I tried testing my app with genymotion on older Android-APIs.. (Gapps / Play Services installed by drag- & dropping the zip into the emulators window)
Here are some errors:

I've never seen these errors before.
The same "setup" was running a few hours before totally perfect (the issues came up when I started the updated emulator). Does anybody know how to fix this? I restarted my computer, adb and VirtualBox, but it didn't changed anything.
I'm very sure that the apk is fine and the Maps-Api / AdMob / Analytics is referenced correctly, the same app runs on my real device (HTC m8) without any issues.

now I got managed the issue. After I flashed gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip the emulator executes the app without any errors.
This solutions assumes you use:
Genymotion 2.5
Virtual device running API17 (JellyBean)
Hope it helps others.

Application restarts when user data for contacts app is cleared

My application works with standard android contacts, so I have following permissions in my AndroidManifest.xml:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS" />
Alas, when I clear user data for standard Contacts application ( Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All -> Contacts -> Clear data ), my application com.example.dialer restarts:

Is it possible to prevent this and update my app's state instead?

AFAIK, if your app contains CONTACT related permissions, means your app is associated with contact app somehow and is dependent on that.
When user cleared the contact app data, whole Contact package is restarted by the system(you can see in logs). That means all applications having CONTACTS related permissions will be restarted.
So I don't think you can stop this.

google maps not displayed

I am getting a problem in implementing a simple HelloGoogleMaps tutorial given at http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-mapview.html
The problem is that everything seems fine, but on running the code, only the grid and google logo appears, also if I add another layer of markers, the markers show up but not the underlying map.
There is internet connection in the emulator as on all the other applications network is connected.
Somebody please help me.
The display on the console is :

Application works in Android 1.5 but not 2.2

The spinning globe application unning on the emulator works on android 1.5 as target but puts out a "force close application" error in android 2.2 target. Where should i look to find the problem ?
I have enclosed the logcat details that I get,

Any insights on where the problem could be ?

You should look at the log from the emulator.
You can get this on the command line using:
adb logcat
Or if you're using the ADT Plugin for Eclipse the log is visible there. If you can't see it select Window ▶ Show View ▶ Other... and then select Android ▶ LogCat.
It's probably also worth reading the Debugging page in the Android Developer Documentation.

Recompile it under 2.2 and look for deprecated warnings
