Answer 1

this worked for me.

xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" 

total code is:

<android.support.v7.widget.CardView     xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"     android:layout_width="match_parent"     android:layout_margin="8dp"     android:id="@+id/card_griditem"     android:layout_height="match_parent"     card_view:cardUseCompatPadding="true"     card_view:cardElevation="4dp"     card_view:cardCornerRadius="3dp">`

Make sure you have set android:hardwareAccelerated="false" as true in Manifest. By setting it to false your application will not able to use GPU and can't make some 2D designs.
