Clicking the hamburger icon at the top causes the app to crash

[n0m0r3pa1n]

This happens on Nexus 5X with Android 7.1. Please tell me how can I help if I have to debug something!

Here is the crash

EDIT: Wow, you guys pass the whole book as a serializable to the next screen everywhere, why not just work with the filePath and read it everywhere you need it? I will surely check this out.

Same here. Did you find a solution? Here, it came up with a "TransactionTooLargeException: data parcel size 939344 bytes", which is a pretty low usage. There's something nasty going on here.

I will review the lib and make PR probably. It has a good look and feel and some good options so it is worth trying. The problem is that they pass the whole Book object to every screen as a serializable which is huge. Also the lib crashes when rotating the phone ...

1. The problem was that when calling another activity the previous one wanted to save it's state where the Book serialized variable was so the state was too large - over 3 mb with maximum allowed 1.
2. I have fixed the TransactionTooLargeException by replacing all usages of the Book serializable with the needed fields like book title & path to it. So every fragment that needs to read a book does it by reading it from the file path.
3. I also fixed an exception when trying to open a chapter. There was a comparison by the title of the chapter which was null. I made it to use the id.

I will not make a PR because the rotation is still blowing. Still checking that up.

Thanks.. Yes, book size is getting too large.. Currently we are using EpubReader().readEpub() which reads all the resources. But I think, if we use readEpubLazy() which will only have href. This way we can avoid problem of TransactionTooLarge.. I'm working on it, but since i also have to manage other work, I'm bit slow.. But, it will be fixed soon..
