The NullPointerException is getting for all the devices running Android 10 and above, only if "View Attribute Inspection" option enabled from Developer Options. But specifically for Samsung Galaxy S21+ is getting this issue even the "View Attribute Inspection" option is disabled. Any help would be appreciated.

I first saw this issue after attaching the layout inspector in Android Studio. But after I stopped using the layout inspector the issue persisted.

I had to factory reset my device to get rid of this issue. Exact same code - but a factory reset fixed the problem. It's like the device got stuck with View Attribute Inspection turned on even though I turned it off in settings.
