I recently get the following errors in the PlayStore console:

This seems to happen when the service gets started in the background which handles weather data updates. The strange thing is:
This happens ONLY on Samsung devices with Android 5.0.
I searched for this problem but didn't find anything about it.
Somebody here have the same errors? Unfortunately I don't have a Samsung device but I will just add the permission to the manifest and hopefully this error will go away.
