This is the code that I used:
Intent i = new Intent(PSTimelineActivity.this, PSPreCheckoutActivity.class);
i.putExtra("checkout", 0);
startActivity(i);
And it takes around 5-6 seconds to change the activity. Time in which my console log is flooded by the same error, tens of times:
09-10 15:56:16.661 31171-31189/nl.hgrams.passenger W/Binder﹕ Caught a RuntimeException from the binder stub implementation.

TRACEVIEW doesn't help, because of the services that work in the background of the app.
I added some logs, for the next Activity, at the start and end of OnCreate() and OnResume(), and it enters here, logs them, and only after, I get flooded by the error. And the View comes to the screen only after the errors finish. Which is weird. because at OnResume() I should have had the view already correct?

The error might be in my OnCreate() function, even something might be called on a separate thread and that causes the error.
This is my OnCreate() function, if it helps:
http://pastebin.com/1ajdzSr2
EDIT: After some more test, I figured out that it hangs on the init function that I call from my OnResume() method.
My onResume():
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
CheckOutIntent cot = PSLocationCenter.getInstance().pref.getOutIntent(PSPreCheckoutActivity.this);
if( cot != null){
Intent intent = new Intent(PSPreCheckoutActivity.this, PSTimelineActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
PSLocationCenter.getInstance().pref.setIsBackground(this, false);
if(!PSLocationCenter.getInstance().mLocationClient.isConnected()) {
PSLocationCenter.getInstance().startLocationClient();
}
init();
}
NOW this is my init() Function:
I created it specially in a AsyncTask, to that it won't use the UI Thread.
BUT inside, at a moment, I use realm, which must be on the main thread, so I make a Handler post. Might this be the problem? I'm still debugging , but I'm guessing it might be there.
PS: Will it help if I remove the Asynctask?

Thanks to @Ci_ I found out the issue. This is apparently a bug of Android Studio 1.4 Preview. or the Android SDK. For more details, check here: Android: Constant memory consumption / dumpGfxInfo() That helped me resolve it
