Can you post the whole logcat of the exception? It may contain some useful stuff like `Caused by:` part. — Vucko, Aug 06 '16 at 18:01
As your logcat says, your drawable is not getting referenced properly. Check it. Also, clean your project. — Shaishav, Aug 06 '16 at 18:15
Yes, exactly this ^ . Check both your drawables you're using like this: `android:drawableLeft="@drawable/ic_lock_icon_png"`. I think therein lies the problem. Comment them both and see if the error occurs again, if not, you got a problem with one of them at least. Especially the one I mentioned looks suspicious to me because of `_png` in the name. — Vucko, Aug 06 '16 at 18:17
Caused by: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Resource is not a Drawable (color or path): TypedValue{t=0x1/d=0x7f02005a a=-1 r=0x7f02005a} - This line clearly states that one of the resources is not a drawable. Check the ic_email or ic_lock_icon and whether they are right. — Narayan Acharya, Aug 06 '16 at 18:17
Since its line 19 its probably with the first edit text i.e the one with the ic_email — Narayan Acharya, Aug 06 '16 at 18:19
@Vucko I removed the above-mentioned lines of code now there's another error similar to this one, am updating the logcats in my question. — Nukhba Arshad, Aug 06 '16 at 18:41

I see no difference in the logcat unfortunately. Can you do the following: first locate the editText in question - by commenting out one and then the other and seeing which one causes the trouble, after that try commenting/uncommenting line after line of it's attributes to see which one causes the error :) Write the results, good luck hunting. — Vucko, Aug 06 '16 at 18:45
Please post your build.gradle file contents. I had a similar problem like this. Maybe i can solve yours too. Post your build.gradle file — Nick Asher, Aug 06 '16 at 18:56
One problem could be the size of the image. If its too large it could pose problems. Check this out, have you made a similar mistake? - http://stackoverflow.com/a/34707995/5512274 — Narayan Acharya, Aug 06 '16 at 18:58

the problem is in your android:drawableLeft="@drawable/ic_lock_icon_png" drawable left,right doesn't work in old device so remove it and check

if you want drawableleft then change your vector asset "ic_lock_icon_png" to image asset or jpeg. (recomended image asset) .
