boolean shouldExecuteOnResume;
@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_employee);

        name = findViewById(R.id.text_name);
        sp = getSharedPreferences("attendlogin", MODE_PRIVATE);
        String emp_name = sp.getString("name", null);
        name.setText(emp_name);

        in_time_button = findViewById(R.id.buttonlogin);
        out_time_button = findViewById(R.id.buttonlogout);
        close_button = findViewById(R.id.buttonclose);
        close_button.setEnabled(false);
        out_time_button.setEnabled(false);
        In_time = findViewById(R.id.text_in_time);
        Out_time = findViewById(R.id.text_out_time);

        shouldExecuteOnResume = false;
}

@Override
    protected void onResume() {
        if (shouldExecuteOnResume) {
            super.onResume();
            sp1 = getSharedPreferences("InTime", MODE_PRIVATE);
            String in_time_textView = sp1.getString("in_time_sp", null);
            In_time.setText(in_time_textView);
            in_time_button.setEnabled(false);
            out_time_button.setEnabled(true);
        } else {

I am Using THis Link (Android - Prevent onResume() function if Activity is loaded for the first time (without using SharedPreferences)) as a reference But Still I am getting Error .

testcase : try this line `super.onResume();` outside if condition. — Vidhi Dave, Feb 01 '18 at 08:32
When first time your activity opened then your onResume's super method not called. Try this as @VishvaDave said. — Vishal Chhodwani, Feb 01 '18 at 08:44
@VishvaDave has given perfect answer. actually in some callback method has some rules you must have to call super method before any statement. — Abdul Rizwan, Feb 01 '18 at 08:52
Yes that is true ... it was a really small mistake which i ignored .. @Abdul Rizwan — Abhijit, Feb 01 '18 at 08:56

Replace your onResume with this

@Override
    protected void onResume() {
        if (shouldExecuteOnResume) {
            super.onResume();
            sp1 = getSharedPreferences("InTime", MODE_PRIVATE);
            String in_time_textView = sp1.getString("in_time_sp", null);
            In_time.setText(in_time_textView);
            in_time_button.setEnabled(false);
            out_time_button.setEnabled(true);
        } else {
            super.onResume();
            shouldExecuteOnResume = true;
        }
}

You need to make sure that you have super.onStop and super.onDestroy in your overridden methods. This could be a good candidate for the problem you have:

@Override
protected void onStop() {
Log.w(TAG, "App stopped");
super.onStop();
}

@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
Log.w(TAG, "App destroyed");
super.onDestroy();
}

Try super.onResume(); outside if condition.

@Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        if (shouldExecuteOnResume) {
            sp1 = getSharedPreferences("InTime", MODE_PRIVATE);
            String in_time_textView = sp1.getString("in_time_sp", null);
            In_time.setText(in_time_textView);
            in_time_button.setEnabled(false);
            out_time_button.setEnabled(true);
        } else {
            shouldExecuteOnResume = true;
        }
}

onResume is Called everytime application is Opened
