Answer 1

If You Are Using Acra Library Check This Answer :

Your app is probably using a new version of ACRA library. In new the version they added to the lib AndroidManifest.xml file. The android:maxSdkVersion="25" is silently merged to main app AndroidManifest.xml file, hence the app doesn't have WAKE_LOCK permission on Oreo devices. The solution is add tools:node="replace" to your uses-permission declaration.

For example <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" tools:node="replace"/>.

Answer 2

Android permissions are case sensitive. So check whether you have added the permission correctly.

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

Also there is a known bug in Marshmallow. So try building by changing your targetsdk version is it is Android 6.0.
