title: Crash on Samsung devices for EditText containing links
body: <p>Okay, so this code works perfectly fine on any other device, but crashes on Samsung devices. I can't seem to figure out why really, but I do know that if I use a TextView it does not crash. Problem is though, that I need an EditText for this field and it can contain multiple links. I've spent the past one day looking for a solution to no avail, so I thought I'd post here:</p>
  
  <p>Note: This seems to work on Nexus and Motorola devices I tested on:
  Is there some workaround that I may have missed as I'm going to guess samsung played around with how to handle links in EditText boxes?</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class MainActivity extends Activity {
  
  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        EditText t3 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.text3);
        t3.setText(
                Html.fromHtml(
                        "&lt;b&gt;text3:&lt;/b&gt;  Text with a " +
                                "&lt;a href=\"http://www.google.com\"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt; " +
                                "created in the Java source code using HTML."));
        t3.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
  
  }
  
  @Override
  public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
      // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
      getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
      return true;
  }
  
  }

  <p>Here's a look at the stacktrace if that helps:</p>
