Binary XML file line #1: invalid drawable tag vector

Question

I have an app that runs perfectly on most devices. However, I'm getting a FATAL exception whenever I try to run my application on devices with API < 21.

Here is the log:

I have tried changing to AppComaptEditText, but it still just gives the same error.

Thanks in advance :)

Perhaps the vector drawable backport does not work for `drawableLeft`/`drawableRight`. — CommonsWare, Jan 24 '18 at 00:41
@CommonsWare How do I know if the backport works for drawableLeft/drawableRight? Also, note that it works on devices with API > 20 — Ace Falobi, Jan 24 '18 at 01:53

Documentation about Vector Graphics says:

Android 4.4 (API level 20) and lower doesn't support vector drawables.

With Support Library you have backward-compatibility using the attribute app:srcCompat, but it is not backported for android:drawableRight.

The solution is to keep using .PNG files for those cases or try to set it by code.

Thanks a lot. This pretty much fixes my problem – Ace Falobi Jan 24 '18 at 12:47
Setting it by code works? Or did you have to change the drawable to a PNG? – Shashank Saxena Aug 01 '18 at 05:26
Not necessary switch to PNG, you can play with your layout and and include your vector drawable as an image view. – Murciegalo84 Nov 15 '18 at 14:03
I get the same error as OP when getting svg drawable from code on API < 21 – Peter May 19 '19 at 18:39

implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:{current_version}'

If the issue is caused by a drawableLeft or drawableRight then replace TextView with androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatTextView or EditText with androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatEditText.

Then, use one of:

app:drawableLeftCompat
app:drawableStartCompat
app:drawableEndCompat
app:drawableRightCompat

This is actually a fix to this problem. +1. Marking as answer – Ace Falobi Apr 16 '19 at 04:48
The same fix can be applied when using Button and it's AppCompatButton counterpart. – xarlymg89 Jul 01 '19 at 11:59

To create vector drawable use:

vector = VectorDrawableCompat.create(context.getResources(), R.drawable.res, null);

Or add AppCompatDelegate.setCompatVectorFromResourcesEnabled(true) to Application onCreate() method

Note: this solution doesn't work for android:drawableLetf or android:drawableRight but allow to use app:srcCompat

You can use this solution to get vector drawables before 5.0 :

Drawable drawable = AppCompatResources.getDrawable(mContext, mImageTitleResId);

I had a similar stack trace in my project when running on Android 4.4 devices, even though it worked fine on Android 7 and higher:

...when trying to reference drawables for use with ViewPager2 tabs with the TabLayoutMediator:

        viewPager = view.findViewById(R.id.pager)
        viewPager.offscreenPageLimit = 2
        viewPager.adapter = shareCollectionAdapter
        val tabLayout = view.findViewById(R.id.share_tab_layout) as TabLayout
        TabLayoutMediator(tabLayout, viewPager) { tab, position ->
            when (position) {
                0 -> {
                    tab.text = getString(R.string.location)
                    tab.icon = ContextCompat.getDrawable(Application.get(),  R.drawable.ic_baseline_location_on_24)
                }
                1 -> {
                    tab.text = getString(R.string.log)
                    tab.icon = ContextCompat.getDrawable(Application.get(),  R.drawable.ic_baseline_list_alt_24)
                }
                2 -> {
                    tab.text = getString(R.string.device)
                    tab.icon = ContextCompat.getDrawable(Application.get(),  R.drawable.ic_baseline_perm_device_information_24)
                }
            }
        }.attach()

...but none of the above solutions worked.

I ended up fixing this by refencing the resource ID for the drawables directly instead of using ContextCompat to load them as drawables first.

Note that Kotlin doesn't resolve the direct assignment of tab.icon = R.drawable.x directly, so you need to use the setter method tab.setIcon(R.drawable.x) instead.

Here's the fixed code that works:

        viewPager = view.findViewById(R.id.pager)
        viewPager.offscreenPageLimit = 2
        viewPager.adapter = shareCollectionAdapter
        val tabLayout = view.findViewById(R.id.share_tab_layout) as TabLayout
        TabLayoutMediator(tabLayout, viewPager) { tab, position ->
            when (position) {
                0 -> {
                    tab.text = getString(R.string.location)
                    tab.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_baseline_location_on_24)
                }
                1 -> {

Android 4.4 (API level 20) and lower doesn't support vector drawables.

Remove line vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true from your app/buld.gradle.

edit

implement also line in app/buld.gradle. implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:[version sdk]'

The enquirer is using vector drawables, removing that line from the gradle file would remove the support for vector drawables in pre API 20 devices. – Capricorn Jul 14 '18 at 18:06
CApricorn....... It can use the Support Library option, which allows it to use vector drawables in versions prior to api 20, as https://developer.android.com/studio/write/vector-asset-studio – abner Jul 16 '18 at 20:35

Binary XML file line #1: invalid drawable tag vector
