title: intent.getAction() is returning NULL
body: <p>In my app, I have added a splash screen and I have created the splash activity and made the appropriate changes to the manifest file. However, when I now run my app, the splash screen displays for its allotted time, and then returns a NullPointerException. The problem is being caused by</p>
  
  <pre><code> intent.getAction()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>On line 241 of the class my splash redirects to, intent.getAction() is returning null. It is my understanding that the action is grabbed from the manifest file for the specified activity. That is correct isnt it? If so, can someone look at this and see if I have buggered something up? I see nothing wrong. </p>
