Firebase Analytics - NPE in CrashReport

I've just migrated to Firebase Analytics 9.0.0 and when tried to launch the app on emulator api10/x86, then the following exception is thrown by the services. Any ideas how to work around that?

The code is nothing more than activity with:
#Override
protected void onCreate(#Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
FirebaseCrash.log("onCreate: " + getClass().getSimpleName());
}

Unfortunately, using Firebase on devices or emulators without Play Services isn't a supported use case. Crash Reporting will fail to initialize, and you will see a message to that effect in logcat when the app launches. However, if you are also seeing a crash when calling a method after failed init, that seems like a problem we should correct.
It sounds like you are doing the best thing you can by suppressing the exception, but I'd rather not make you go through that, so I'll pass it on as feedback to the team.

Just small correction on what Doug mentioned. Firebase Crash Reporting is not supported on non-play devices. Firebase Analytics in particular and some of the other Firebase product do support non-play devices.

My app freezes crashes when it's supposed to go to the next activity

I don't know why the app crashes whenever it's supposed to go to the next Activity. I made a practice app that works as it should when using the same format. I uploaded the files to gist.github.
The error is

The questions array at line no. 164 is going out of bound that means questionIndex is greater than the total length of the questions array. So you should add a check on the length before extracting value from the array.
You have added the check but after that you incremented the value so either you modify the if condition to if (questionIndex < questions.length -1)
or modify the questionIndex variable before the if condition
You are getting problem because you haven't initiated resultView9 that is why it is null and giving nullpointer, just initiatlise it as you done with other and everything is fine. You have initialised the resultView8 twice just add resultview9 over there

Obviously you are dereferencing a variable in line 83 of the file Jax.java where the variable is null.

If show the relevant code, people may be able to help you.
