So I've been building an app with sdk26 but testing on an api23, now that I've tried running on an emulator and android device on api26 I keep getting "Binary XML file line #0: Error inflating class TextView" error.

Here's the code for the xml file it's crashing on.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

The crash points to these lines of my main class code.

 public void createEnterCompView() {


    setContentView(R.layout.activity_enter_competition);

    TextView vocalist = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.Vocalist);
    TextView beatproducer = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.BeatProducer);
    TextView dancegroup = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.DanceGroup);
    TextView solodance = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.SoloDance);
    TextView visualarts = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.Grafitti);
    ImageView elements = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.elements);

}

Here's the crash

I got similar crash

InflateException: Binary XML file line #0: Error inflating class EditText

in Android 8.0 and 8.1 in release apk due to xml fonts cause I didn't use latest support libs, I update support library version and it's fixed.

xml having

<EditText
        android:id="@+id/editEmail"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:fontFamily="@font/sanfranciscodisplay_medium"
        android:hint="@string/enter_email_address"
        android:lines="1"
        android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"/>

My gradle configs

BUILD_TOOLS_VER = '26.0.2'

TARGET_SDK_VER = 26
MIN_SDK_VER = 19

SUPPORT_LIBS_VER = '26.1.0' -> '27.0.2' (fix here)
GOOGLE_SERVICES_VER = '11.4.0' -> '11.8.0'
