Android Question Solution for android.app.RemoteServiceException ?

[Powie]

Maybee someone has an idea. Since I have set targetSdkVersion="26" i got reported this Bug in the developer console:

android.app.RemoteServiceException:
at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage (ActivityThread.java:2101)
at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage (Handler.java:108)
at android.os.Looper.loop (Looper.java:166)
at android.app.ActivityThread.main (ActivityThread.java:7425)
at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke (Native Method)
at com.android.internal.os.Zygote$MethodAndArgsCaller.run (Zygote.java:245)
at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main (ZygoteInit.java:921)

For me it's a phantom, because I cannot reproduce this error on my devices.... If i search the forum, i find some hints thats this maybee is related to notifications.
Also my latest try, to disable the service who uses the notification system, doesnt helps me...

At this time, I have no idea how to handle this problem. Maybee it is related to some special cases or combinations of devices and Android 8.

In the Developer console it shows me, that this error only exists on Android 8 and it is showy often on Xperia Devices... This doesnt match to the distribution of the app over devices / android versions.....

How can I go the right way to solve this?

So why is there Application_Error sub there?

You should never stop the service or stop automatic foreground mode from Service_Create. Only from Service_Start.

Many Many thx @Erel . This was the problem! No more Crash Reports.

I was blind .. because that the code was unchanged since years... Only the targetSDKversion forced this...

And also many thanks @DonManfred for the hint to Crashlytics!
