The layout of the EditText is

<EditText
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:minHeight="88dp"
        android:isScrollContainer="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="left|top"
        android:inputType="textMultiLine"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceButton"
        android:hint="@string/Text"
        android:background="@drawable/edittextstyle"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:textColor="@color/DARK_TEXT_COLOR" >
    </EditText>

There is no code referenced to the EditText. Just the layout. If I change the inputType attribute to

text

the App do not crash. What do I wrong?

Change your code from this:

<EditText
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:minHeight="88dp"
        android:isScrollContainer="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="left|top"
        android:inputType="textMultiLine"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceButton"
        android:hint="@string/Text"
        android:background="@drawable/edittextstyle"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:textColor="@color/DARK_TEXT_COLOR" >
    </EditText>

To This:

<EditText
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:minHeight="88dp"
        android:isScrollContainer="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:gravity="left|top"
        android:inputType="textMultiLine"
        android:hint="@string/Text"
        android:background="@drawable/edittextstyle"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:textColor="@color/DARK_TEXT_COLOR" >
    </EditText>

This part of your xml code causing the problem: 

android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceButton"

Hope it work
