I know that asking for help in this case should not be completely right but I do not know what else to do.
I'm using this TVDB library and when running on android >= 5.0 everything works fine. If I run it in android < 5.0 it'll crash when calling searchSeries (when creating a TheTVDBApi it does not crash) and the exception says :
Caused by: java.lang.VerifyError: com/omertron/thetvdbapi/tools/TvdbParser
at com.omertron.thetvdbapi.TheTVDBApi.searchSeries(TheTVDBApi.java:362)
Do you have any suggestions? The dependencies should be right because it shouldn't work on >=5.0 if it is a dependencies problem.
If anyone has ever tried this library and it worked well below android 5.0, let me know!
These are my dependencies:
commons-codec:commons-codec:jar:1.10
commons-dbcp:commons-dbcp:jar:1.4
commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.2
commons-pool:commons-pool:jar:1.6
junit:junit:jar:4.12
org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:jar:3.4
org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:jar:4.4

org.slf4j:slf4j-api:jar:1.7.12
org.slf4j:slf4j-jdk14:jar:1.7.12
org.yamj:api-common:jar:1.4
In the logcat it is also reported this :
VFY: unable to resolve exception class 1918 (Ljavax/xml/ws/WebServiceException;)
VFY: unable to find exception handler at addr 0xc
VFY: rejected Lcom/omertron/thetvdbapi/tools/TvdbParser;.getActors (Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/util/List;

This is what I get when calling tvDB.searchSeries(params[0],"en"); below android 5.0 :

As you can see the line of code apparently causing the crash is located in TheTVDBApi library class at the 362nd row which is return TvdbParser.getSeriesList(urlBuilder.toString(), getBannerMirror(this.apiKey));
I don't get why is there a difference in this when running below android 5.0
