Getting the following exception when testing your SDK with our app with the Android L preview:

Thanks Michael. We're in the middle of testing a release right now, but
we'll look at this for the next one.

Hey Michael-

I finally got a chance to work on this earlier tonight, sorry for the long delay. The fix was relatively straightforward and appears to be working. We'll be testing and then releasing it soon.

As an aside, most of my issues in getting our build fully moved to L were in getting Mockito to work properly :\ very very annoying. Also, in my testing it appears that apps built to target versions of Android before Android L are totally fine, even if run on a device that is running Android L. Was that your experience as well?
