Android Question package invalid" + B4A 13.5 + Windows 10 PRO

[Lammies]

HI I am trying to install an app in B4A but to no avail. I have changed in paths to versions 34, 35, 36, changed it in the manifest accordingly - nothing. One of the installer at least gave me this message: The parser encountered some structural problem in the manifest. Cleaned project before compiling. There are no compiling errors. Just when installing.
My phone uses Android version 15.
Any suggestions?

1. Use latest version of B4A with recommended SDK: https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html
2. If it still happens then post more information. Does it only happen with this specific app? Post your manifest editor code.

Hi Erel
Thanx for assistance.
(1) Reinstalled to the latest. (B4A+Java+Android) = Compiles OK
(2) Yes, only with this app. Tried another and the installation is working fine. Tried to install with ADB as well. Error code as per attached png. Manifest pgm attached. It seems that it might have a problem with the manifest. Config paths pic attached as well.

1. Better to put the "additional libraries folder" outside of Program Files.
2. Shared Modules folder is mostly a thing of the past and better kept empty.
3. The manifest editor code is wrong for many reasons.

Add permissions with AddPermission keyword.
Set application attributes with SetApplicationAttribute.
Delete the second AddManifestText.
Don't use the starter service for intent filters. Add a different Receiver.
Add an intent filter with AddReceiverText.

Receivers and Services in 2023+

In the early days of Android services were simple to use and powerful. They allowed doing all kinds of things in the backgrounds with very few restrictions. That's not the case with newer versions of Android. With a few exceptions (that aren't 100% reliable), the only use case for services is to...

Thanx
(1) Moved
(2) Cleared
(3) New Manifest. Not sure if it is correct now. This is what it is after re-installation
