Android Proguard - crash in runtime (not reaching "onCreate()")

Question

When i compile my app without Proguard it runs perfect.
When i compile it with Proguard it crashes on runtime when building the Activity.
I extended & implemented Application structure in order to use google analytics, and added logging at the beginning and on the end of it.
both logs are successfully written to log, but the logs i'm trying to print at the very beggining of the Activity's onCreate() never shown and all i get is this logcat output (which i tried to clear from irrelevant lines to not make it bigger than it is already).

Logcat output: (all my log tags are "MyLog")

my guess is that it is because of the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/util/UUID but i searched for that and added the -libraryjars <java.home>/lib/rt.jar row in the config file, but yet same result.
it seems like it passes the Application section well, but fails when trying to build the Activity - not even getting to onCreate().

any help anyone??

as per this (How to keep/exclude a particular package path when using proguard?) answer you probable can fix it by adding some more rules to your as follows:

-keep public class com.qualcomm.ar.pl.** {
  public protected *;
}

-keep public class javax.crypto.spec.** {
  public protected *;
}

also check here for some qualcomm forums on the same error https://developer.vuforia.com/forum/android/proguard-problems-release-version-android-market

thanks for the quick reply! i made the changes as you shown and suggesged, but i still get the `java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/util/UUID` exception – RedHat Apr 06 '16 at 14:27
ProGuard is not my specially, but it seems you should also add the same lines for the `java.util.UUID`. That's what the exceptions `NoClassDefFoundError` and `ClassNotFoundException` means, that it couldn't find the class, so it means, ProGuard removed those classes, so you should add rules to keep them. – Budius Apr 06 '16 at 14:28
