Yes from your error log ,

android.support.v7.widget.GridLayout cannot be cast to android.widget.GridLayout
                      at devector.dom.gridtest.MainActivity.onCreate(MainActivity.java:21)

you can change your casting like this way to solve your problem

android.support.v7.widget.GridLayout grid = (android.support.v7.widget.GridLayout)findViewById(R.id.grid);
