launching app on Nexus 4 fails

Question

I'm writing ICS+ app and it works fine on Nexus S, Nexus Galaxy, Nexus 7, Galaxy Tab, Galaxy S3 and bunch of other devices. Yesterday I got Nexus 4 and the app crashes during the startup.

The stacktrace is below. I looked in the sources (android.view.ViewConfiguration) and what the device tries to do is to get fading marquee resource - here is

mFadingMarqueeEnabled = res.getBoolean(
            com.android.internal.R.bool.config_ui_enableFadingMarquee);

Does anyone has any idea what might be happening?

Answer 1

I wouldn't use the internal resources because it would appear they are not public (and are subject to change).

have a look at The import com.android.internal.R cannot be resolved for more information on how you would get it to work the way you want.

Answer 2

It seems like the android framework installed on the LG Nexus 4 lacks com.android.internal.R.bool.config_ui_enableFadingMarquee
