Same with android 14 app crashing after start background service

[marcelxsilva]

Maybe it could be this: https://github.com/Rapsssito/react-native-background-actions?tab=readme-ov-file#warning

it worked for me, downgrading the targetSdkVersion version to 33, not good, but I'm looking for another solution.

[rajkumarthirumalai]

when i try to start the background action,App keep crashing without errors so i tired adb logcat

and got the below error in it ,May be it might help to resolve

Targeting U+ (version 34 and above) disallows creating or retrieving a PendingIntent with FLAG_MUTABLE, an implicit Intent within and without FLAG_NO_CREATE and FLAG_ALLOW_UNSAFE_IMPLICIT_INTENT for security reasons. To retrieve an already existing PendingIntent, use FLAG_NO_CREATE, however, to create a new PendingIntent with an implicit Intent use FLAG_IMMUTABLE.

@rajkumarthirumalai I updated FLAG_MUTABLE to FLAG_IMMUTABLE but after that I am getting this error: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start service com.asterinet.react.bgactions.RNBackgroundActionsTask@7a9878a with Intent { cmp=com.myapp/com.asterinet.react.bgactions.RNBackgroundActionsTask (has extras) }: java.lang.SecurityException: Starting FGS with type location callerApp=ProcessRecord{5a92e72 15113:com.myapp/u0a195} targetSDK=34 requires permissions: all of the permissions allOf=true [android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION] any of the permissions allOf=false [android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION] and the app must be in the eligible state/exemptions to access the foreground only permission

Did you also faced the same ? Or how did you solve the previous one ?

You're missing <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_LOCATION" /> permission strings. Also make sure your app has the appropriate permissions granted before starting the foreground service.
