Description

We do a research app that is the leading of its kind. We have a group in Botswana, Africa, who reports that our app crashes when resuming. (Not on load, but on resume.) The error messages (below) make it seem that this error is on the outside of our code. (We have an onResume function that is always called. I haven't found evidence that it reaches this point.)

Interestingly, it only happens on SOME of their Android devices. Also, we have not had this bug reported by any of our thousands of other iOS and Android users. They bought the Androids in Botswana (above South Africa), so I'm guessing that they may have an Android rejected by US inspection. Maybe I'm overly cynical.

Anyways, the error messages are below. It seems to be in handing the data structure over to the MainActivity. who or data is null. You probably know more than I do, though.
