Hello,
After updating Backendless for Android to version 5.0.2 the application crashes immediately after launch with the following stacktrace:

The exception occurs always during debug attempt and sometimes after run launch. Reinstalling app didn’t work.

it occurs because you try to use backendless api before call Backendless.initApp method

4

Backendless.initApp(this,
APPLICATION_ID,
API_KEY);
replace getApplicationContext() with this
Backendless.setUrl(SERVER_URL); delete this line of code
