Random Unable to resume activity: Window couldn't find content container view

Unity 2018.3.3f1 (also happened in 2017.2.20, 2018.3.1)

I've got FATAL EXCEPTIONs caused by "Unable to resume activity", when I open some new activities. Facebook sharing, untiy iap etc. It happends randomly, not every time.

What is it? Can someone help me?

I use common plugins, like UnityAds, Admob Ads, Unity IAP, Google play games services, PlayFab, Facebook sharing. I used these plugins in lots of projects, but only here it's happening.

It's really hurt for us because it's happening when people try to buy something or share.
Can someone help with an idea what is this? Looks like something with native android settings, like AndroidManifest or maybe I missed some libriries?

 

Have you found the solution?

 

I have the same problem on unity 2017.4.27f.
Have you found the solution?

 

Having same problem 2019.1.8f1
Anyone found the solution yet?

 

I have the same problem on unity 2018.4.11f.
I can not find the solution..;(
Anyone found it ?

 

I am also wondering how to solve this. Some people were able to get it working bu jumping between different AndroidX versions.

I can only confirm that this issue is unrelated to the Unity version.
Still no luck with the straight forward way how to solve it or at least ideas what exactly is causing it.

Not me, but still looking for it.
It also seems only related to Android 5 & 6

 

I am also worried about this problem, if I delete FacebookSDK, then it disappears. I do not want to delete FacebookSDK, you need to understand what the problem is.

 

We also experienced a lot a crashes exactly like this with Unity 2018.4.12f1, and it seems only related to Android 5 & 6. Still could not find a solution yet. Btw, do you know steps to re-produce this bug on devices?

 

We're also experiencing the same issue here. This problem only started occurring after 12/24/2019 for us. Before this, we haven't run into this issue before. We haven't changed anything big regarding SDKs and plugins.. not sure why it just suddenly appeared overnight.

 

For now, we have to disable Facebook on Android 5 & 6 to resolve this issue.
We only called Facebook.Init() in our game (not any other facebook functions), and now we have to ignore that call if the device < Android 7.

It seems that this issue happens randomly. I used to reproduce this issue on an Android 6 device (twice), and from the log I saw that it was related to Facebook SDK (the Facebook SDK could not init).

 

Has there been a fix or workaround issued for this? Is there anyway to tag/bring a Unity Team Member in here to clarify the issue? I've been searching the forums and there are other java lang issues but the stack trace in this thread is the same one I'm getting:

Is this really caused by the Facebook SDK?

 

I don't think it's actually related to Unity. The problem is started after migrating from support lib to AndroidX.
I have zero clues what exactly causing it, my best guess that it's some wild libs cocktail.

 

If it helps someone..
I have this error reproduced in two cases. When the authorization window for Google Play Games opens, and the second case when the IAP window opens.
But this does not play back constantly, I have to call the IAP window 100 times so that a crash occurs once.
Important Note: If I delete the FacebookSDK, the crashes disappear.

 

I have similar reports that it's happening when opening Google Play or IAP UI

 

It sounds similar to me. I did not remove Facebook SDK completely, just not initialize Facebook on Android 5 & 6. Although those crashes are decreased significantly, after several days, these crashes come back (with less cases, on some Android 6 devices).
Note: I also use Google Play Games in our games, so maybe that's the reason?

 

No, GPGS is not affected by crashes. Moreover, we have games where the same plugins are installed, the same versions and they have no crashes.
I tried to remove all calls to "FB.LogAppEvent", at first glance the crashes disappeared (for some devices)

 

I also have reported that crashes are stopped after the FB SDK is removed from the project.
Stop using SDK API for Android 5 & 6 might be the way to go.

 

Yes, I confirm that the lack of initialization of Facebook on Android 5, 6 eliminates crashes.

 

Well, let's send reports to FB. That's the best chance to get it fixed in the upcoming FB SDK updates.

I don’t know where to write. Also, according to reviews on the Internet, they do not respond.

 

We have a crash because of the same exception when user tries to log in with Facebook. I've reported a bug here: https://developers.facebook.com/support/bugs/2255632138073467/

 

It looks like Facebook SDK still has problems.

I have tested two versions (7.18.0 and 9.0.0).
