        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.0'

    implementation 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'
}

This problem showed up on api 22 device (android 5.1.1) and on api 23 emulator device while the app worked fine on api 26 and on api 25.


Solution

  • Please try to use the latest version 28.0.0 not 28.0.0-alpha1. Please change those and try again like this

    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0'
    implementation 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:28.0.0'
    

    instead of

    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1' 
    implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0-alpha1'  
    implementation 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'
