Android.view.InflateException: error inflating android.widget.EditText class ASUS Android 5

I am getting persistent messages about this crash but it only happens on asus devices using android 5 as shown in the picture below

That's the stack trace :

    </android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

It works fine on other devices and I tested with ASUS devices with Android 4.3 and 6.0 and it works great too.

As stated in the comments to this answer at fooobar.com/questions/43256 / ... the issue is with the theme, so if you set the parent theme to ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light

it will fix crashes on ASUS devices.

eg

<style name="TextInputStyle" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light">
  <item name="android:textColorHint">@color/black</item>     
  <item name="colorControlActivated">@color/gray</item>
</style>
