I tried to run your code but everything works fine for me... Here is the test class I wrote :

public class TestActivity extends Activity
{
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        Button btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.testBtn);
        btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v)
            {
                showPopup();
            }
        });
    }


    private void showPopup()
    {
        PopupWindow window = new PopupWindow(this);
        window.setWidth(WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        window.setHeight(WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);

        window.setTouchable(true);
        window.setFocusable(true);

        EditText text = new EditText(this);
        text.setText("Touch it, it doesn't crash");

        window.setContentView(text);
        window.showAtLocation(text, Gravity.NO_GRAVITY, 30, 30);
    }
}

main.xml :

Maybe you tried to run the popup code in the onCreate() function? If I do it, it throws the same Exception as yours, but it's normal since when onCreate() is called the activity is not fully initialized yet.

(I tried on a Galaxy Tab too, but without swype input)
