App crash / force close java.lang.NullPointerException, help

Hello everyone, I open this thread here because I know much of the people here have more experience and may be can help with the problem.
I have a tablet Chuwi with Intel Celeron (x86-x64) with Windows and now I make dual boot with "Phoenix OS Thunder Lite v4.5 Android x86", every think work as expected but main app which I use crash. I investigate the problem and with the another port "Prime OS Thunder Lite v1.0" the issue doesn't present and work like a charm. But with Prime OS i have very short life time, in Phoenix OS is greatly improved. After a coup of port I considered the something in Phoenix OS (no matter which port or mod) have this issue. I have a log with the error, generated by the application + video of the problem.
The quote of the log:
Code:
