Thanks... it was not a threading issue... i was calling
views.setImageViewBitmap(R.id.profile_image, icon);
with a null icon.... Most stupid mistake ever.
But i think it would be better if android throws a better exception
with a clear message.
Anyways... solved!
And a lot learned today!
Thanks to you all!
