anyone has an idea whats wrong with this ? I have tried changing uses-permission to permission, where it had C2D_ it didn't work.

Answer 1

You may refer with this post.

Remove

<uses-permission android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"/>
<permission
    android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
    android:protectionLevel="signature"/>

Run App then add the permisson again and Run App.

This problem often occurs when you try to install debug and release version of your app on the same device.
