I: Time spent: 00:00:01.205

And this is the content of the manifest.xml after edited. The only change I made was add the line text android:exported=“true” as a new line inside each <activity and <receiver tags
If someone can help me finding the error I will be very thankful:

Shouldn’t it be changed to 31

Hi,
I didnt notice that part before because I only changed what was told in the tutorials I saw. And it wasn’t said to change the sdk in the manifest.xml. there is another step to change the sdk version. But I will try to change it and see if it works.
I dont think this was the problem but it is worth to try. Thanks.

No, not needed.

if I’m not mistaken, you should do it too service as well.

Also you have

bild

Edit

If it should be android:exported true or false that I can’t say precisely

Update

By viewing on a different platform, service should be set to android:exported="false"

        <service android:exported="false" android:name="com.onesignal.FCMIntentService"/>
        <service android:exported="false" android:name="com.onesignal.FCMIntentJobService" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"/>
        <service android:exported="false" android:name="com.onesignal.FocusDelaySyncService" android:stopWithTask="true"/>
        <service android:exported="false" android:name="com.onesignal.FocusDelaySyncJobService" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"/>
        <service android:exported="false" android:name="com.onesignal.SyncService" android:stopWithTask="true"/>
        <service android:exported="false" android:name="com.onesignal.SyncJobService" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"/>
        <activity android:exported="false" android:name="com.onesignal.PermissionsActivity" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"/>
        <receiver android:exported="true" android:name="com.onesignal.NotificationDismissReceiver"/>

Is this the solution?

Meanwhile Kodukar updated to SDK31…
If you still have an issue with android:exported, then see here
