6,538 PointsTried that and it didn't work, fussed with it some more and I just realized I had android:layout_centerInParent setting to an @id instead of a "true". Since I had added it into the XML, didn't catch it till I noticed the field was still blank in the design view properties. Still don't know why it worked regardless on the android studio emulator and not Genymotion, but now they are both working properly.

6,538 PointsThe center in parent didn't work for me. I found out it worked in the Android Emulator, but not the Genymotion. Anyone else experiencing this or know a reason why this might be the case?
