I`m getting error when run leanback activity

Question

So, I`m trying to implement Leanback activity, and i have activity:

public class TvNavigationActivity extends LeanbackActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_navigation);
}

My layout resource file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<fragment
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/main_frame"
    android:name="com.app.tv.firetv.ui.fragment.HomeFragment"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

homefragment and its layout looks like this

public class HomeFragment extends BrowseSupportFragment {
    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_home, container, false);       

        return view;
    }    
}

HomeFragment.xml

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="@color/backgroundColor">
        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textSize="48sp"
            android:text="HOME"
            android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>
    
    </RelativeLayout>

When i run this the app crashes, here is log:

Answer 1

You are not supposed to override onCreateView . Remove this and it should work.

Also, check the official docs:https://developer.android.com/training/tv/playback/browse?hl=ru
