java.lang.IllegalStateException: Fragment not attached to a context

I have a tablayout with a viewpager in my MainActivity.

My PagerAdapter looks like this:

public class MainActivityPagerAdapter extends PagerAdapter {

    public MainActivityPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm, int numOfTabs) {
        super(fm, numOfTabs);
    }

    @Override
    public Fragment getItem(int position) {

        switch (position) {
            case 0:
                return new StoresFragment();
            case 1:
                return new OrdersFragment();
            default:
                return null;
        }
    }
}

I am coming back from another activity like this:

Intent intent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
finish(); //finishAffinity();

But then I get an java.lang.IllegalStateException in one of my Fragments in the viewpager of the MainActivity.

I read many related questions and tried to solve this. It is said, that this happens when one keeps references to Fragments outside of the PagerAdapter. But I am not doing this, as you can see in my code.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Edit - Stacktrace

Edit: Interesting is, that the view has defenitely loaded when the error occurs. Because the error occurs about 10-15 seconds later after the fragment is shown again. I this in my orderFragment, where the error occurs:

orders = new QueryResult<UserOrder>(UserOrder.class) {
            @Override
            public void results(List<UserOrder> results) { 
orderLoadingMessage.setBackgroundColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.green)); 
    }
}

I do this in onCreateView and this result comes about 10-15 seconds after the view loaded.
