Android PermissionDenial: Bind_RemoteViews Permission

Question

I keep getting this error when launching a service from onReceive or onUpdate in my AppWidgetProvider class.

09-15 11:54:04.096: WARN/ActivityManager(1318): Permission Denial: Accessing service ComponentInfo{com.fttech.gameIT/com.fttech.StackWidgetService} from pid=1318, uid=1000 requires android.permission.BIND_REMOTEVIEWS

Ive already declared the permission in my Android Manifest.

But it still gives me this.

Is there something i am doing wrong?

Here is what my code looks like..

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent){
    AppWidgetManager.getInstance(context);

    intent = new Intent(context, StackWidgetService.class);
    context.startService(intent);

    super.onReceive(context, intent);
}
@Override
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds){

    super.onUpdate(context, appWidgetManager, appWidgetIds);
    Intent intent = new Intent(context, StackWidgetService.class);
    context.startService(intent);
}

}

EDIT: I have it declared in my manifest..

Here is what i still get...

09-15 12:13:03.818: WARN/ActivityManager(1318): Permission Denial: Accessing service ComponentInfo{com.fttech/com.fttech.StackWidgetService} from pid=1318, uid=1000 requires android.permission.BIND_REMOTEVIEWS

EDIT: Manifest

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

    <service android:name="StackWidgetService"
      android:enabled="true"
       />

There is the permission and the Service declared in my manfiest

Answer 1

Try putting your permission inside your service tag:

<application>
    ...
    <service
        android:name=".StackWidgetService"
        android:exported="false"
        android:permission="android.permission.BIND_REMOTEVIEWS" />
</application>

Also, the dot before your class name is important as it is a shortcut (so you don't have to write the fully qualified class name) and the android:enabled attribute is true by default.
