It's important to keep current when you're dealing with technology. That’s why we're constantly working to improve the quality of our software, particularly libraries that are linked into your apps, such as the Support Library. The Support Library is a suite of libraries that provides backward compatibility along with additional features across many Android releases.
We have just released version 25.2 of the Support Library. If you're making use of the android.support.v7.media.MediaRouter class in revision 25.1.1 or 25.1.0, we strongly recommend that you update due to a known issue. If you haven't updated recently, you've missed out on some great bug fixes such as these:
25.2:
Corrected a severe mediarouter issue in which using an A2DP Bluetooth device and media routing APIs could cause the device to become unresponsive, requiring a reboot
Showing a slide presentation with screen mirroring no longer causes the device to disconnect from Wi-Fi
Media button now properly handles media apps that did not register themselves with setMediaButtonReceiver()
TextInputLayout correctly overlays hint and text if text is set by XML (AOSP issue 230171)
Corrected a memory leak in MediaControllerCompat (AOSP issue 231441)
RecyclerView no longer crashes when recycling view holders (AOSP issue 225762)
Reporting (and fixing) a Bug
The Support Library is developed by the Android Framework and Developer Relations teams, and, just like the Android platform, you can file bugs using the AOSP issue tracker, or submit fixes to our Git repository. Your feedback is critical in helping us to make the Support Library the most productive environment to use for developing Android applications.
