    <p>I have recently stumbled upon an issue with android 4.0.3, where Im getting the following Exception as soon as the application starts (on other android versions it works fine):</p> <pre><code>java.lang.NullPointerException at android.view.GLES20RecordingCanvas.drawPatch(GLES20RecordingCanvas.java:97) at android.graphics.NinePatch.draw(NinePatch.java:125) at android.graphics.drawable.NinePatchDrawable.draw(NinePatchDrawable.java:189) at android.widget.ImageView.onDraw(ImageView.java:892) at android.view.View.draw(View.java:10978) at android.view.ViewGroup.drawChild(ViewGroup.java:2887) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchDraw(ViewGroup.java:2489) at android.view.ViewGroup.drawChild(ViewGroup.java:2885) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchDraw(ViewGroup.java:2489) at android.view.View.getDisplayList(View.java:10415) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchGetDisplayList(ViewGroup.java:2597) at android.view.View.getDisplayList(View.java:10380) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchGetDisplayList(ViewGroup.java:2597) at android.view.View.getDisplayList(View.java:10380) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchGetDisplayList(ViewGroup.java:2597) at android.view.View.getDisplayList(View.java:10380) at android.view.ViewGroup.dispatchGetDisplayList(ViewGroup.java:2597) at android.view.View.getDisplayList(View.java:10380) at android.view.HardwareRenderer$GlRenderer.draw(HardwareRenderer.java:842) at android.view.ViewRootImpl.draw(ViewRootImpl.java:1910) at android.view.ViewRootImpl.performTraversals(ViewRootImpl.java:1634) at android.view.ViewRootImpl.handleMessage(ViewRootImpl.java:2442) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4424) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:511) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:784) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:551) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) </code></pre> <p>This is related to having hardware acceleration enabled, as soon as I disable it on the manifest the application starts working just fine. </p> <p>By doing a search I found a <a href="http://logs.nslu2-linux.org/livelogs/android-dev/android-dev.20120316.txt" rel="noreferrer">log</a> (inside that doc search for "drawPatch") on some conversation of Romain Guy, where he discuss a little bit of what could be causing this, although there is no workaround or fix proposed, I wonder if I should disable hardware acceleration only for this version of android, or if there is a workaround for it?</p> <p>Thanks for your time.</p>

    1. COThere is a way to [disable](http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/hardware-accel.html) according to the API. This is the code they provide: `myView.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null);` You're going to need an if statement that checks API version then use the above code.

    2. CO@A--C thanks, that would require to do it for each view, is it possible to change it at the application level using code, I mean outside the AndroidManifest file?

    3. COI don't think so, it seems you can only specify your app is harware accelerated and it's global, no specific API versions. One thing you can do is make a special API layout folder (layout-v13 or whatever 4.03's API is) and set each view's [layer](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#attr_android:layerType) type in the xml.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
