Possible fix:
The error message "android.app.MissingForegroundServiceTypeException" indicates that an app targeting Android 14 (API level 34) is trying to start a foreground service without specifying the service type.
In Android 14, foreground services require a specific type to be declared to improve transparency and security. This exception occurs when the service attempts to run in the foreground without this required type information.
To resolve this issue, you'll need to update the app to specify the foreground service type. Here's a two-step solution:
Declare the foreground service type in the manifest:
In your app's manifest file, locate the service declaration for com.dx.anonymousmessenger.service.DxService.
Add the android:foregroundServiceType attribute to the service element and specify the appropriate type based on the service's functionality (e.g., location, mediaPlayback).
Update the code to start the foreground service:
When starting the service from your activity or another component, ensure you call startForeground and provide a notification along with the required foreground service type using setForegroundServiceType.
By following these steps, you'll provide the necessary type information for the foreground service and ensure it functions correctly on Android 14 devices.
