Android OSS license plugin crash on tapping menu items

Question

I've been trying out the Google APIs for Android OSS licenses tool and come across an issue.

The activity is being launched from a library module that contains the preferences aspect to my app. However, the Play Services code is crashing a lot! Has anyone seen this upon tapping the found OSS list items?

Here are the actions leading to that action;

Answer 1

Just specify appropriate theme in the AndroidManifest.xml file for 2 activities OssLicensesMenuActivity and OssLicensesActivity. For example:

<activity android:name="com.google.android.gms.oss.licenses.OssLicensesMenuActivity"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.DayNight.DarkActionBar"/>

<activity android:name="com.google.android.gms.oss.licenses.OssLicensesActivity"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.DayNight.DarkActionBar"/>

Answer 2

Application tag

<application
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

application/>

and styles.xml

 <!-- Base application theme. -->
    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
        <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
        <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
    </style>

I hope ActionBar required to set Title of activity
