Hello,

Since upgrading to kitkatt, ive been noticing these in bug reports... Anything to worry about do you think?

I'm currently having to run Implicit because the class name of the background service will change between applications.

Currently I don't know what risk this represents. I don't know why it is marked as not safe.

I'll do some research when I get a chance ... but it is likely to be the New Year now.

If you want to do the research and let me know your thoughts then that will obviously help ;)

I'll do some digging...

I am facing same issue, any update on it?

Red-Folder commented 10 years ago

I've considered low importance at the moment. I've been working on other things I'm afraid.
