Answer 1

In my case, I changed the theme of my app in the AndroidManifest.xml file and cleared out my styles.xml file (because I'm a noob and hoped to just use an out-of-the-box android theme). After launching the app, I assume there were zombie references to the old theme that caused the error because, after reverting my changes, the error disappeared.
