Answer 1

Are you testing with marshmallow version ? cause i found that issue : https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=192357

can u try to change oncreate function from :

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.<YOUR_XML_FILE_NAME>);

To this :

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState, PersistableBundle persistentState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState, persistentState);
    setContentView(R.layout.<YOUR_XML_FILE_NAME>);
}

if the problem persist try to update your android version its an issues in Android 6.0.1 . hope it help .
