Answer 1

This happens whenever you are trying to load a fragment but the activity has changed its state to onPause().This happens for example when you try to fetch data and load it to the activity but by the time the user has clicked some button and has moved to next activity.

You can solve this in two ways

You can use transaction.commitAllowingStateLoss() instead of transaction.commit() to load fragment but you may end up losing commit operation that is done.

or

Make sure that activity is in resume and not going to pause state when loading a fragment. Create a boolean and check if activity is not going to onPause() state.

@Override
public void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    mIsResumed = true;
}

@Override
public void onPause() {
    mIsResumed = false;
    super.onPause();
}

then while loading fragment check if activity is present and load only when activity is foreground.

if(mIsResumed){
 //load the fragment
}
