    <p>I am currently making an android app and am trying to resolve this issue. Whenever I compile my code and lode it onto the emulator, it initially loads up with these errors:</p> <pre><code>05-22 00:12:54.753: W/dalvikvm(1631): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x409c01f8) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate application android.app.Application: java.lang.NullPointerException 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.LoadedApk.makeApplication(LoadedApk.java:482) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleBindApplication(ActivityThread.java:3938) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$1300(ActivityThread.java:123) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1185) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4424) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:511) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:784) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:551) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.LoadedApk.initializeJavaContextClassLoader(LoadedApk.java:362) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.LoadedApk.getClassLoader(LoadedApk.java:305) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): at android.app.LoadedApk.makeApplication(LoadedApk.java:474) 05-22 00:12:54.783: E/AndroidRuntime(1631): ... 11 more </code></pre> <p>Then it kicks me out of the app with a force close but it boots back up soon after automatically and runs just fine. If I close the app and kill it, it doesn't force close or anything. Just when it initially boots up on the emulator. I was wondering what would be the reasoning for this. Here are the messages that pop up after it loads up the second time:</p> <pre><code>05-22 00:13:07.113: D/dalvikvm(1664): GC_FOR_ALLOC freed 38K, 3% free 9110K/9347K, paused 61ms 05-22 00:13:07.165: I/dalvikvm-heap(1664): Grow heap (frag case) to 12.525MB for 3732496-byte allocation 05-22 00:13:07.263: D/dalvikvm(1664): GC_CONCURRENT freed 1K, 2% free 12754K/12999K, paused 5ms+5ms 05-22 00:13:07.543: D/dalvikvm(1664): GC_FOR_ALLOC freed &lt;1K, 2% free 12755K/12999K, paused 37ms 05-22 00:13:07.573: I/dalvikvm-heap(1664): Grow heap (frag case) to 14.502MB for 2073616-byte allocation 05-22 00:13:07.753: D/dalvikvm(1664): GC_CONCURRENT freed &lt;1K, 2% free 14780K/15047K, paused 5ms+5ms 05-22 00:13:08.033: D/gralloc_goldfish(1664): Emulator without GPU emulation detected. </code></pre> <p>I will supply you with any and all coding you guys need but unfortunately I do not know where this error would be at? I have many files inside of my program so I would rather not post all of them if at all possible.</p> <p>Sorry that this question hasn't given much information, I just don't know what information to give to you (if that makes sense?)
