SecurityException: Not allowed to start service Intent act=com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTER

Question

I get the error SecurityException: Not allowed to start service Intent but looks like it do not have good solution after searching many topics.

Please help me,

Thanks,

p/s :

I'm make sure I used correct SENDER_ID as project number was defined at Google API Console and correct package name.

Error :

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />

</application>

SOLUTION I put wrong lines. Should put <use-permission> tag outside of <application> tag.

Answer 1

Change to this:

    <uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="app.cloudstringers.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
      <permission
        android:name="app.cloudstringers.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
        android:protectionLevel="signature" />
    <application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    <activity
        android:name="app.cloudstringers.Cloudstringers"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

    <activity android:name="ui.fragment.RegisterWithAccountsFragment" />

    <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
               android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />



    <!-- Receiver GCM -->
    <receiver
        android:name="app.cloudstringers.GcmBroadcastReceiver"
        android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />
            <category android:name="app.cloudstringers" />
        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>

    <!-- Service GCM -->
    <service
        android:exported="true"
        android:name="app.cloudstringers.GcmIntentService" />



</application>

You should put <use-permission> tag outside of <application> tag.
