Error on schedule notifications (java.lang.SecurityException)

#1

On some devices (samsung, for example Tab S2 and S6, android 7.0) we have game crash with the next traceback.

Case, when schedule defold local notifications. Min SDK 19, Target SDK 26

java.lang.SecurityException: 
  at android.os.Parcel.readException (Parcel.java:1693)

  at com.defold.push.Push.scheduleNotification (Push.java:205)

We already have the “android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE” permission. Need some more permissions for this?

#2

Hmm, @sven any idea?

#3

Hi!

What Defold version are you using? Do you have a custom AndroidManifest.xml, if so can you share it? Is it only local notifications that doesn’t work?

#4

Version of Defold is last one (136). We have the custom manifest and we using only local notifications

#5

I’m suspecting it could have something to do with android:minSdkVersion="19", could you try lowering it to 9 (same as in the builtin manifest)?

#6

Game crash still exist even with minSDK = 9 :frowning:

#7

Would it be possible to recreate the issue with a minimal repro case and send it to me? For example, using your manifest and a single collection with a script that schedules a notification?

#8

The reason, what we does not have device, what have crashes with notifications
I will try do something and post later

#9

Is it the manifest you posted earlier that you currently use, I can try to setup a minimal repro here as well. I’ll try to find one of the devices you listed as well.
