Answer 1

You can also consider listening to the global layout event, this way you'll be sure that the bottomsheet has been laid out when setting the collapsed state.

final View bottomSheet = findViewById(R.id.bottom_sheet);
bottomSheet.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
        @Override
        public void onGlobalLayout() {
            bottomSheet.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnGlobalLayoutListener(this);
            bottomSheetBehavior = BottomSheetBehavior.from(bottomSheet);
            bottomSheetBehavior.setPeekHeight(300);
            bottomSheetBehavior.setState(BottomSheetBehavior.STATE_COLLAPSED);
        }
    });
