Summary problem
So when i start the app it shows a toast an error occurred when scanning for songs in the background. I scan for the songs in my MainActivity (Class ScanSongs). So the problem is a nullpointerexception, but i dont know why it causes an nullpointer? This means there is a problem in my SongList Class getSongs. I've been working hours to find my problem but still didn't find it.
Can someone help me?
