android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Drawable compat_splash_screen_no_icon_background with resource ID #0x7f0801b6

Question

I am getting this issue only for samsung galaxy devices- Galaxy Tab A, Galaxy A03 Core, Galaxy A02, Galaxy A32

Fatal Exception: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.myapp.application/com.myapp.application.ui.MainActivity}: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Drawable com.app.application:drawable/compat_splash_screen_no_icon_background with resource ID #0x7f0801b6

My configuration->

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
    <style name="Theme.App.Starting" parent="Theme.SplashScreen">
        <item name="windowSplashScreenBackground">@color/white</item>

        <item name="windowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon">@drawable/splash_icon</item>

        <item name="postSplashScreenTheme">@style/Theme.Triva.NoActionBar</item>
        <item name="windowSplashScreenIconBackgroundColor">@color/blue</item>
        <item name="windowSplashScreenAnimationDuration">800</item>

        <item name="android:forceDarkAllowed" tools:targetApi="q">false</item>
    </style>
</resources>

This is the resource in read only file ->

Answer 1

This is currently an issue. You will have to wait a bit for the fix to ship, then update the core-splashscreen dependency to the latest version.

It is tracked here https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/229645249 See if the call order they suggest there helps you mitigate the problem.

Answer 2

Try to rename the resource file. Looks like it interferes with some of Samsung's resource files and you have such runtime error.

Answer 3

The background must be a color value, drawables are not supported (at least for now). You can review the example in docs ( https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/splash-screen )

working example:

<item name="windowSplashScreenBackground">@color/colorPrimary</item>
