Android Question Service.StopAutomaticForeground in ver.12

[Alex_197]

Hi all.

I have a question - I'm testing my app in ver.12 and found a very strange situation.

In Starter in sub Sub Service_Start (StartingIntent As Intent) I have a line

Service.StopAutomaticForeground 'Starter service can start in the foreground state in some edge cases.

It works fine in ver.11.80 and if I'm using FLP for GPS coordinates it receives Lat/Long, then disconnects from the service and stops as I expected.

But in ver.12 the same code doesn't work properly - it looks like Service.StopAutomaticForeground doesn't do anything - no crash, no errors. FLP receives lat/long, disconnected from the service and continues to receive coordinates.

Am I doing something wrong?

Please see the attached example - it works fine in 11.80 but not in 12.

Thank you.

Nothing has changed in v12 related to this behavior. I guess that you also changed the targetSdkVersion but it has nothing to do with v12.

Here is my manifest

'This code will be applied to the manifest file during compilation.

AddManifestText(

<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true"

    android:smallScreens="true"
    android:anyDensity="true"/>)
SetApplicationAttribute(android:icon, "@drawable/icon")
SetApplicationAttribute(android:label, "$LABEL$")
'SetApplicationAttribute(android:theme, "@android:style/Theme.Holo")
'End of default text.
