java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No interface method setInputMethod(Landroid/os/IBinder;Ljava/lang/String;)

When testing Fing on Pixel 4 (Android 10 API 29), an exception occured:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No interface method setInputMethod(Landroid/os/IBinder;Ljava/lang/String;)V in class Lcom/android/internal/view/IInputMethodManager; or its super classes (declaration of 'com.android.internal.view.IInputMethodManager' appears in /system/framework/framework.jar!classes2.dex)

It seems that this error is triggered when ape is trying to input something.

Thanks for reporting the issue. Ape makes use some of private APIs of Android. It may broke on some latest Android versions. You could disable sendIMEintent or simply ignore exceptions in the following code block.
