I am experiencing an error quite often among my users. The app crashes during startup. When the MainActivity is supposed to be loaded the VM apparently cannot find the class. I cannot figure out why. The architecture of the app is that there is a common project that both my free and pro version are using. Don't know if it is relevant. See the stack trace below. Any thoughts?

Edit:
Thanks for the comment below, Richard. Now I have changed com.android.Splash
to something else. It wasn't the real classname anyway. My bad...!
