android.app.RemoteServiceException: at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage when sending notifications : <p>I use a service to display notifications. On some rare devices (3 users among 50 000 every day), I have the the following crash (which can be seen in the Google Play developer console ; only on Android 4.x devices) :</p>

<pre><code>android.app.RemoteServiceException:

<p>My notifications are made with a code like this (old style notifs, deprecated in Android 6+ but works anyway ; the bug is on Android 4.x where the code is not deprecated):</p>

<pre><code>Notification notification = new Notification(icon, "Custom Notification", when);
NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
RemoteViews contentView = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(), R.layout.custom_notification);
contentView.setImageViewResource(R.id.notifWeatherImageView, WeatherRowTools.getImageForWeatherCode(weatherCodeString));

....some stuff here...

notification.contentView = contentView;
notification.contentIntent = contentIntent;
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
notification.defaults = 0;
mNotificationManager.notify(1, notification);
</code></pre>

<p>Any idea on how to solve this issue?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot !!!</p>
