I'm getting a very weird error. I have 2 activities. On both I'm getting the SharedPreferences using MODE_PRIVATE (if it matters) by sp = getPreferences(MODE_PRIVATE); on each activity's onCreate() I'm calling sp.getBoolean(IntroActivity.SHOW_INTRO, true)

On the IntroActivity this works fine. But when I'm trying in the main activity, I'm getting this

I made sure that I'm not putting a String somewhere in the middle with that same key

Any ideas?

Thanks!

EDIT: some code:

//onCreate()
sp = getPreferences(MODE_PRIVATE);

// other method
boolean showIntro = sp.getBoolean(IntroActivity.SHOW_INTRO, true); // Exception is here
showIntroCheckBox.setChecked(showIntro);

If it matters, the code which throws the exception is inside a button's onClick
