Dec 13, 2016 08:18PM

Library used (support-v4, appcompat-v7, ...): com.android.support:design:25.1.0
Version used: 25.1.0
Theme used: Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar
Devices/Android versions reproduced on: 4.1.1 and 7.0

Hey guys, I was testing my app with the Support Library 25.1.0 and found this bug on the TextInputLayout. If the EditText or TextInputEditText inside the TextInputLayout sets text using android:text, the hint and text overlay (Like this:

http://imgur.com/a/hTeLa#ne1RSjn). This only affects setting text by xml. Doesn't happen if you set text by code.

*Steps to reproduce: *
1. Add a TextInputLayout from the Design library;
2. Add an EditText or TextInputEditText inside it with a hint set;
3. Run the app and notice everything works;
4. Set an android:text value attribute in the EditText
5. Run the app again and notice how the hint and the text overlay. The component doesn't fix the glitch even if the user type something.

I think this might be the same as

issue 36949180

. As mentioned in the comments there, try:
As a temporary workaround, try turning off Preferences > Compiler > Use External Build.

Deleting the out folder before rebuilding solves the problem

turning off Preferences > Compiler > Use External Build doesn't work if you have other modules as dependencies.

I'm having the same problem.

Also having this problem, but turning off Preferences > Compiler > Use External Build worked for me, even though I have other modules as dependencies, despite what jai.chan mentioned.

A shame that google is not able to solve this issue since several years but is able to pop out yet another android version.

Android Studio 1.4 and this or similar bug is still here! My project is completely blocked due to inability to add a new activity class without getting "cannot find symbol" for it. The other classes are getting compiled except that activty. I've checked in the build/intermediates/classes - the activity .class is missing, not even compiled though it is hollow class, no syntax error.

Already tried:
Invalidate Cache and Restart - nope
Deleted /build directory and rebuild - nope
./gradlew clean of entire project - nope
Restarting after everything above - nope
Recreating a new blank activity - nope
Checked manifest entries for the activity - nope
Combination of the above - nope

Desperation mode: on

I've just managed to workaround it! Simple Refactor > Move to another package did remove the error, but after I moved it back to the original package the error appeared again. Have NO idea what's going on!

Damn, I've found that class in the long forgotten exclude list in my build.gradle! What a stupid mistake of mine. Mystery revealed! (chuckle)
