I have a strange issue. I have an app which I deployed on an Android 4.4 device and use Otto library. I deployed the app on an Android 5.0 device. It still works. I retried on the 4.4 and the app won't launched.
Apparently, it tries to use PersistableBundle.class which a API 21 class. Here my log :
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "android.os.PersistableBundle" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/fr.myapp.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app-lib/fr.myapp, /vendor/lib, /system/lib]]

I find the "solution". Just remove this function from your activity :
@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState, PersistableBundle outPersistentState) {
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState, outPersistentState);
}
