ActionBarView Inflate Crash

Question

I'm getting this crash report from a few users. They are using Samsung SPH-M840 Android version 4.1. The layout I am inflating is a simple FrameLayout with a fragment tag inside it. I am using actionbar-compat.

    java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.customprogrammingsolutions.ShabbosAlarm\/com.cpsolutions.alarmbase.alarm.AlarmMainActivity}: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #30: Error inflating class com.android.internal.widget.ActionBarView

EDIT: Here's the xml, and onCreate of AlarmMainActivity:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <fragment class="com.cpsolutions.alarmbase.alarm.AlarmListFragment"
          android:id="@+id/alarm_list_frag"
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</FrameLayout>

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    alarmFrag = (AlarmListFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.alarm_list_frag);
    preferenceFrag = (AlarmPreferenceFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.preference_list_frag);
    if(preferenceFrag != null) {
        isTwoPane = true;
    }
}

You have a NullPointerException at

android.server.BluetoothPanProfileHandler.createNewTetheringAddressLocked(BluetoothPanProfileHandler.java:332)

There is an issue with the layout file used in:

com.cpsolutions.alarmbase.alarm.AlarmMainActivity.java

At line 57 there will be a setContentView with the argument R.layout.{insert name here}

Go to res/layout/{insert name here}.xml and fix the issue.

If you need help, post the XML file here.

EDIT:

The error is because it cannot inflate the ActionBarView. Please post the class declaration. (what it inherits or extends)

If you read further down the trace, you can see that it has nothing to do with my XML. The exception is getting thrown when an internal `ActionBarView` is being instantiated, with the specific exception being a NPE thrown from the `BluetoothPanProfileHandler.createNewTetheringAddressLocked` method. – Eliezer Feb 09 '14 at 18:26
The exception is somehow caused by a `singleLine="true"` – Feb 10 '14 at 06:55
That is just an unfortunate side-effect – Feb 10 '14 at 06:56
I'm just a little confused as to why a TextView would be calling anything from `BluetoothPanProfileHandler`. In any case, my layout is literally a `FrameLayout` with a `Fragment`. Nothing that could possibly cause an `InflateException`. In fact, 99.99% of the time this never happens. I only get crash reports about it sporadically. – Eliezer Feb 10 '14 at 07:54
Please post the XML file and AlarmMainActivity.java – Feb 10 '14 at 08:38
I've posted them in my question. AlarmMainActivity is too long to post, so I just included onCreate(). – Eliezer Feb 10 '14 at 22:02
