java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.widget.TextView.setText(java.lang.CharSeq

858 PointsHey there,
I'm struggling in the part where we start to populate the data on the main activity exactly within the runnable triggered from runOnUiThread, inside the run() { whenever I set the command to set the text of an injected/binded textview text the error throws. It seems like the run puts the updateDisplay() in a scope which it can't access backwards the textviews below:
@BindView(R.id.timeLable) TextView mTimeLabel; @BindView(R.id.temperatureLabel) TextView mTemperatureLabel; @BindView(value = R.id.humidityLabel) TextView mHumidityValue; @BindView(R.id.preicpLabel) TextView mPrecipValue; @BindView(R.id.summaryLabel) TextView mSummaryLabel; @BindView(R.id.iconImageView) ImageView mIconImageView;
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { updateDisplay(); } }
