Invalid Layer Save Flag - only ALL_SAVE_FLAGS is allowed with Android 9

Question

I'm getting the following error when updating my targetSdkVersion to 28, the app that works perfectly in previous versions but specifically in android 9 gives me that error. I have seen several github links where they mention that the base bibliography was updated to 6.0.8, which I do not understand. Someone could tell me how to fix it. I am attaching the error I have in the Android Studio console.

Answer 1

I had the same issue with Glide SVG loader. To fix this you can migrate to the latest version 1.4 of AndroidSVG.

I updated the version to

implementation 'com.caverock:androidsvg-aar:1.4'

and the issue seems to be fixed for me.

Answer 2

I had the same issue. It seems to be an android 9 problem. Resolved it by using:

implementation 'com.airbnb.android:lottie:2.7.0'

I hope it helps.
