DailyForecastActivity not Working

When I click button dailyButton the app loads a blank screen on the emulator and displays the following error in the log:

E/Surface: getSlotFromBufferLocked: unknown buffer: 0x7fe622c28850

I am using the Marshmallow version of Android.

It's a known bug in Android 6.0 that has since been patched in 6.0.1. Open the SDK Manager (Android head over a down arrow in the toolbar) and update your Marshmallow emulator images. You may need to click Show Package Details in the Manager to show the individual components of the SDK. You may also need to delete and recreate your emulator if it's stubborn about updating.
