Android facebook applicationID still null

I've followed everything on the tuturial connnecting to facebook, but I've been still getting applicationId cannot be null.

The login button:

<com.facebook.login.widget.LoginButton
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center"/>

Android manifiest:

<application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/MyMaterialTheme.Base" >
        <activity
            android:name=".LoadingActivity"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>

            <meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId"
                android:value="@string/app_id"/>

strings.xml:

<string name="app_id">1122************</string>

LoadingActivity:

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext());
        CallbackManager callbackManager = CallbackManager.Factory.create();
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_loading);

        addControl();
        startLoading();
    }

Error:

java.lang.NullPointerException

I've just ran into the same issue, move the meta-data line inside the application tag instead the activity tag, otherwise the Facebook SDK won't be able to read it.
