It’s not XML related, it crashes because it’s trying to load the value from hard drive and it finds a String instead of the expected integer.

Did you by any chance use the same key “volume” for anything else? Or did you edit shared preferences manually? This is the only thing that comes to my mind…

Unless… “volume” is a very generic name, some library you’re using may be writing in your default shared preference file.

Can it be that android:defaultValue is not set in XML?

In that case the default value is 0.

just uninstall your app and then install it. look like you saved string on that key before. or change the key or clear app data then check
