Testing on the current store build 7.4.2 (2736)

After setting the device to Chinese and installing the app, I was able to reproduce the crash by tapping the Donate button in Settings. I am also noticing some other issues:

The Explore feed frequently fails to load anything (except because you read)
Cannot seem to Turn on/off The following in explore feed settings: In The News, On This Day, Featured Article, Top Read, Places, or Randomizer
Cannot access User talk page within settings
Cannot access Watchlist within settings
Attempting to turn on push notifications, causes an error message: "Unable to check for Echo Notifications subscriptions" error

@ARamadan-WMF - Let me know if I should do some more testing on Chinese Wikipedia, but it looks like there are some issues there.
