Unable to get provider com.google.firebase.perf.provider.FirebasePerfProvider on pre-lollipop devices

问题

On all versions before v21 (i.e. 16-19), my app crashes on start because of the following error:

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main

On Android 5 and up, my app works without any issues.

I am targeting SDK version 27 and my minimum version is 14. Yes, I have also enabled Multidex support. I have seen some answers about that, but they aren't relevant to my issue as I have this enabled for years already. Currently I am also using Firebase services 11.8.0, the latest.

回答1:

Fixed it!

Although I had multidex imported and enabled in Gradle, I had to change my Application class to extend MultidexApplication instead of Application.

Hope it helps others too!

回答2:

Thanks for the MultiDex tip, which didn't fix this problem for me, but was useful anyway.

What fixed it for me was, in my app build.gradle moving

apply plugin: 'com.google.firebase.firebase-perf'

to be before the following:

apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'
apply plugin: 'io.fabric'

In other words, applying firebase-perf as early as possible, but after 'com.android.application'.

Sharing here in case this works for anyone else.
