TransactionTooLargeException in "isGooglePlayInstalled"

[ertanden]

I have lots of crash reports about "TransactionTooLargeException" in the method isGooglePlayInstalled.

According to what I've read, this is due to the 1Mb limit that is being reached by the activity listing.

Does it happen for multiple users or just one?

Multiple users.

Should be easy to fix with a try catch. If it gives exception, you can assume there's no play store.

Any updates on this?
