1. Don't use START_STICKY. It doesn't do anything useful in newer versions of Android.

2. Make sure not to use the starter service for this.

3. No need to add these permissions yourself.

4. How do you see that it is not starting? Try to show a notification from your service.

5. Monitor the logs with USB debug mode.
