We got these crashs for the SHIELD device. How can this issue be resolved?

This is the relevant codepath in Android Billing library where it crashes.

@OverRide
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName name, IBinder service) {
BillingHelper.logVerbose(TAG, "Billing service connected.");

  mService = IInAppBillingService.Stub.asInterface(service); // Line 822 where it crashes
  String packageName = mApplicationContext.getPackageName();
  mSubscriptionsSupported = false;
  mSubscriptionUpdateSupported = false;
  mIABv6Supported = false;
  // The code below tries to figure out, which IAB API version and features are supported by
  // current client (Play Store app on this device).
  // First, it checks for IABv6 with subscriptions to avoid extra queries for most of the
  // clients.
  // Second, it checks if IABv6 is supported for in-app only items.
  // Third, it checks for IABv5 for subscription only (since only getBuyIntentToReplaceSku was
  // added during that release).
  // And finally it checks for IABv3 for both subscriptions and inapp items.
  try {
    // Check for in-app billing API v6 support with subscriptions. This is needed for
    // getPurchaseHistory and getBuyIntentExtraParams methods.
    @BillingResponse
    int response = mService.isBillingSupported(/* apiVersion */ 6, packageName, SkuType.SUBS);

Did you adapt the proguard configuration?
