I had a similar problem with the additional message:

simplenames must not contain empty items: []

Came out that I forgot to add some value to app:argType="" inside my nav_graph_xml_file

Check your Navigation Graph file like @Abdulsalam Opeyemi mentioned above.

I had the same error, after proper checking, I realized there was an error in my navigation graph's code. The error was gone after correctly formatting and correcting the error. I suggest you check your navigation graph's code for any misspellings or errors and if you are not using navigation then delete the graph entirely. The error is shown below.

WRONG:

 <fragment
        android:id="@+id/SecondFragment"
        android:name="com.example.opeyemiabdulsalam.carowners.CarOwnersFragment"
        android:label="@string/second_fragment_label"
        tools:layout="@layout/car_owners_list">

        <action
            android:id="@+id/action_SecondFragment_to_FirstFragment"
            app:destination="@id/FirstFragment" />
        <argument
            android:name="filterValue"
            app:argType="com.example.opeyemiabdulsalam.data.Filter"
            <!--            app:popEnterAnim="@anim/slide_in_left"-->
            pop
                app:popExitAnim="@anim/slide_out_right"/>
        </fragment>

RIGHT:

<fragment
    android:id="@+id/SecondFragment"
    android:name="com.example.opeyemiabdulsalam.carowners.CarOwnersFragment"
    android:label="@string/second_fragment_label"
    tools:layout="@layout/car_owners_list">

    <action
        android:id="@+id/action_SecondFragment_to_FirstFragment"
        app:destination="@id/FirstFragment" />
    <argument
        android:name="filterValue"
        app:argType="com.example.opeyemiabdulsalam.data.Filter"
        app:popEnterAnim="@anim/slide_in_left"
        app:popExitAnim="@anim/slide_out_right"/>
</fragment>

Got the same error. Did a search with grep -r "\x00" app/src/main/res and a app/src/main/res/navigation/.DS_Store file came up. Deleted it and everything played out.

something starting with \u0 seems the be escaped Unicode ...so this might be an encoding issue. searching XML files for string \u0 should locate the problematic file and shed some light on the actual cause.

I faced the same problem. Trying to find xml file with this character but I think its generated by Safe Args gradle plugin. Solved problem by creating empty Android project and copied existing code and resources into this.
