android.view.View$OnUnhandledKeyEventListener

Question

I am new to Android Studio and I don't get why my toolbar isn't shown as described by https://developer.android.com/training/appbar/setting-up I know there are already some other questions like mine on stackoverflow but they don't work at my project. Therefore I would be very thankful for fixing this issue. Screenshot:

can you paste your activity source in which you are using this layout containing toolbar? — Qasim, Aug 22 '18 at 01:05

If using Android X and androidx.core:core and/or androidx.appcompat:appcompat, update androidx.core:core to 1.4.0-alpha01 and/or androidx.appcompat:appcompat to 1.3.0-alpha01

This worked for me. In my case I was using MaterialToolbar, which seemed to be the one causing the issue. I am only using androidx.appcompat:appcompat, and I updated from 1.1.0 to 1.3.0-alpha01 as mentioned. The issue was solved after syncing the project. – FraK Jul 27 '20 at 20:57

Updating to 'com.google.android.material:material:1.4.0' worked for me. I was with version 1.3.0, and that version was causing the errors. In this update of material, they have updated androix.core from 1.2.0 to 1.5.0. – lubrum Jul 05 '21 at 05:57

Make the changes in your build.gradle (app level) to downgrade to version 27 as below. Then sync and build project. Hopefully it will fix the issue..

compileSdkVersion 27

targetSdkVersion 27

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1'

It was the best solution available at the time, but now there's a better one: upgrade to Android Studio 3.2. – mhsmith Nov 16 '18 at 13:37

Downgrading is not an solution anymore. I'm using Android Studio 3.6.3 and still experiencing this problem. – Anbuselvan Rocky May 09 '20 at 10:08

I got the same issue and it has been fixed by your solution. However, I'm using AndroidX libraries and after setting the compileSdkVersion to 27, it got the error "> Task :app:processDebugResources FAILED AGPBI: {"kind":"error","text":"Android resource linking failed" ... " unless I set the compileSdkVersion to 28 or higher. I'm new to Android Studio by the way! – Nguyen Ha Minh Jun 27 '20 at 03:57

As mentioned by documentation, first, your Activity should be extend from AppCompatActivity().

Second, in your project styles, Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar is set which means it does have a DarkActionBar but you already have a Toolbar in your layout. So, simply, change:

Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar

to:

Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar

Then, (in java-kotlin side), setup the Toolbar:

// Note that the Toolbar defined in the layout has the id "my_toolbar"
    setSupportActionBar(findViewById(R.id.my_toolbar))

And give the Toolbar an id.

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
   android:id="@+id/my_toolbar"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
   android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
   android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.ActionBar"
   app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"/>

Then you should be good to go.

the note about changing DarkActionBar to NoActionBar got the UI previewer working for me targeting API 28 and using androidx packages. There was no toolbar in play as far as I know (brand new project generated by AS 3.0.1), but the exception was the rather bizarre "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: android.view.View$OnUnhandledKeyEventListener" mentioned by OP — CCJ, Oct 10 '18 at 17:05
Changing `Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar` removed the error for my `activity_main` but broke my `settings_activity` — Elijah Mock, Jan 09 '20 at 02:16

https://github.com/DonaldDu/FixUnhandledEvent

android.view.View$OnUnhandledKeyEventListener is add in api28.

If runtime device below 28, can't find the class, but run without fatal error.

We can inject the class in debug mode to ignore error message.

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'
implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:$kotlin_version"
//inject class when api<28 && debug==true
debugImplementation 'com.github.DonaldDu:FixUnhandledEvent:1.0'

It's not an error but a warning it can be ignored by the addition of the following code in my build.gradle (app level) the file works in my case. Then sync and build the project. Hopefully, it fixes the issue.

configurations.all {
  resolutionStrategy.eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
    def requested = details.requested
    if (requested.group == "com.android.support") {
        if (!requested.name.startsWith("multidex")) {
            details.useVersion "26.+"
        }
    }
  }
}

Downgrading to sdk 27 as one of the other post suggested came with a new set of problems for me. see: Android - resource linking failed / failed linking references

Adding an entry to my build.gradle (app level) solved the issue for me.

dependencies {
    ...

    implementation 'androidx.core:core:1.5.0-alpha05'
    ...
}

Here's where I got the idea to try this: https://github.com/android/sunflower/issues/295#issuecomment-649630057

There's problem with library ~-v7:28.0.0. There are two solutions, your can either download compile and targetSdkVersion to 27 or upgrade Android Studio to latest version (3.2.x higher).

You can fix it easily,

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'

and Open style.xml under values and change to

style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
