Its my logcat of Error Can anyone please tell me whats Wrong With it and why this kind of behaviour in App.

Although it works On devices Above Lollipop But below that it crashes. What is the reason of crash ??

res hierarchy

Here is my AndroidManifest contains

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ico"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
    <activity
        android:name=".SignIn"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

And activity_start.xml contains

<com.google.android.gms.common.SignInButton
    android:id="@+id/googleBtn"
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"

    app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"

    app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
    android:layout_marginStart="24dp"
    android:layout_marginEnd="24dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
    app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
    android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
    app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.898"
    android:layout_marginLeft="24dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="24dp"
    app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="1.0"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"></com.google.android.gms.common.SignInButton>

Its in a ConstraintLayout

<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@drawable/app_star3"
tools:context="com.latestkinnaurisongs.kinnaurigeet.SignIn"></android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

do one thing , select `project` view instead of android and post pic of your complete `res` hierarchy , it usually happens when you don't have layout or resoirce under required directory — Pavneet_Singh, Sep 09 '17 at 10:38
Check the app_star3 drawable XML. You are probably referencing a drawable attribute in XML where a drawable resource is expected. Theme attributes inside drawable XML is only supported since API 21 — BladeCoder, Sep 09 '17 at 11:04
