From the log, the crash happens while RecyclerView is doing animation stuff. In Settings case, we didn't use any animation in the list, so the simplest solution is to disable the ItemAnimator completely. Test: Check if origin listview behavior is affected. There's no crash after user comes back from subpage. Fix: 184214085 Change-Id: If0988cb8e036ce5af1b8d2aa0d4ab77effd476e2
