Google play services 6.1.11 (....-012) are crashing when trying to open leaderboard on android 2.3.5 and 2.3.6

While testing my latest android game on 2.3.5 the leader boards (using Google play services) kept crashing although I used previously tested code in other games. So I tried out apps from the play store, and noticed that all apps are crashing when opening the leader boards on android devices with 2.3
Is this a bug in google play services? (I am using the API9+ version of PLay services)
Test devices:
HTC ChaCha 2.3.5
Samsung Galaxy GIO 2.3.6
Anyone has an idea? Do have have an android 2.3 device that currently has a game with play services leaderboards successfully opening?
Thank you
EDIT3:
I opened a defect for the issue since the new versions of play services did not fix it:
https://code.google.com/p/play-games-platform/issues/detail?id=194
feel free to star the issue
PS: you might not get crash reports in your developer console because the game continues to run it is the services/leaderboards activity that crashes
EDIT2:
Issue still present on 6.1.83 !
EDIT1:
Adding the stack below, it seems that there is a resource missing which is in the GUI of the leaderboard, and as far as I know, the developer cannot fix it in his app because the play services project will be used is the one fetched from the play services version running on the user's device right?

Getting resource not found exception in android app

I am trying to build an app in AOSP, my development kit has HDPI density, I have double verified it with the following code snippet:
switch (getResources().getDisplayMetrics().densityDpi) {
case DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_LOW:
Log.d(TAG, "\n\n\n\n LDPI \n\n\n\n");
break;
case DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_MEDIUM:
Log.d(TAG, "\n\n\n\n MDPI \n\n\n\n");
break;
case DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_HIGH:
Log.d(TAG, "\n\n\n\n HDPI \n\n\n\n");
// ...
break;
case DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_XHIGH:
Log.d(TAG, "\n\n\n\n XDPI \n\n\n\n");
// ...
break;
}
when I build my application in Android File system,and if I run it, then I am getting following error:

My all the drawable resources are in drawable-hdpi.
But if I put drawables in all the drawable-* folder then app runs.
But then UI is getting scattered.
Does anybody have idea, what the problem could. Do I have to add any Variable or flag in the Android.mk
=========edit=========
The app works fine if I build with eclipse. And run on the same device.
Therefore issue might be in building app along with AOSP.
========================
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Yuvi

So after struggling too long and googling for more then two days, I found the issue. There was no drawable-hdpi folder in apk. I have resolved the issue by adding the LOCAL_AAPT_FLAGS += -c mdpi,hdpi,xhdpi line in Android.mk file.
Those who are struggling with the same kind of problem follow these supper steps:
Check at which line it is giving error:
Binary XML file line #11: Error inflating class android.widget.Button
In my xml file it was:
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_footer_back"
style="#style/normalButtonStyle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="60px"
android:layout_marginRight="1dp"
android:background="#drawable/button_state_selector"
android:drawableLeft="#drawable/ic_back"
android:drawablePadding="10px"
android:text="#string/back"
android:visibility="gone" />
So, what is the next step now, the log itself tells the story, check the line:
Caused by: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Resource is not a Drawable (color or path): TypedValue{t=0x1/d=0x7f02000d a=-1 r=0x7f02000d}
Here r=0x7f02000d is the resource id, that you can find in yourproject/gen/R.java
if you search for 0x7f02000d in R.java then you will able to find which resource is creating the problem, in my case it was R.drawable.ic_back
Hope it helps other to resolve their problems.
Regards,
Yuvi

Your UI is scattered because your files are not matching to appropriate density or resolution while displaying on device. You should use density independent pixels in xml.
And Create Drawable folder and put your files in it. And give reference of the drawable folder.

My android app keeps crashing when I launch it

I recently got some app source code. So I imported to Eclipse and renamed application package. It all went well until I tried launch the app. When I do it instantly crashes. I was wondering why. This is the log:

this is my android manifest

Check the default action in AndroidManifest.xml. It's probably set to theHardestGame.pac.GameLogicController and should be something else.

Looks like you've not updated the package consistently. In your manifest it's "theHardestGame.pac", while the application package seems to be "com.shadycorp.MoonStoneMarble". I suggest you search for those strings and make sure you've updated everything. Also make sure you're doing a clean build.

Exception when using custom attributes in layout

I have defined some custom attributes that I want to use throughout my app, which work fine when running through Eclipse, but throws an exception sometimes when the APK has been built and distributed. Below is the stack trace of the exception:

Here is the view at line #13:
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:minHeight="12dp"
android:paddingLeft="?attr/listItemPaddingLeft"
android:paddingRight="?attr/listItemPaddingRight" >
Here is my defined attributes:
<declare-styleable name="MyAppTheme">
<attr name="listItemPaddingLeft" format="dimension" />
<attr name="listItemPaddingRight" format="dimension" />
<attr name="listItemHeight" format="dimension" />
<attr name="listHeaderHeight" format="dimension" />
</declare-styleable>
And lastly, here is my theme:
<style name="MyAppTheme" parent="#style/Theme.Sherlock.Light">
<item name="listItemPaddingLeft">22dp</item>
<item name="listItemPaddingRight">22dp</item>
<item name="listItemHeight">43dp</item>
<item name="listHeaderHeight">73dp</item>
</style>
Does anyone see any problems with the way I've defined things, or can offer an explanation as to why this would work when built locally, but not when the APK is signed? My device is the Galaxy Nexus, which worked fine locally and with the signed APK, but the Galaxy S3 does not work with the signed APK (wasn't able to test it locally).

You need to make sure that the currently (used)set theme is one which contains your custom attribute. You can set it in the manifest file or just set it explicitly before inflating the layout:
setTheme(R.style.MyAppTheme)
setContentView(R.layout.MyActivity);
