Idk why you get the Error, but this should actually work. I also do it like this:

startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + APP_PNAME)));

But keep in mind that this would crash, if you are testing it on an Emulator/ a device without a play store. So I would suggest you to wrap it in a try and catch

This error occurs when running on a device without the Google PlayStore. I guess you might be running this on a emulator device which doesn't have Playstore and hence the error.

Implement using try catch as follows:

try{
        startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id="+getPackageName())));
    }
    catch (ActivityNotFoundException e){
        startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id="+getPackageName())));
    }

I am always using below code which is useful for us:

Intent rateIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + context.getPackageName())); 
startActivity(rateIntent);

In think it will help full for you.

This is the best way to do it;

Appirater is an android library based off the original Appirater By Arash Payan Appirater iPhone. The goal is to create a cleanly designed App Rating prompt that you can drop into any android app that will help remind your users to review your app on the android Market.

try {
    Uri marketUri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + getPackageName());
    Intent marketIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, marketUri);
    startActivity(marketIntent);
}catch(ActivityNotFoundException e) {
    Uri marketUri = Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + getPackageName());
    Intent marketIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, marketUri);
    startActivity(marketIntent);
}

Best and Simple Code

private final String mStoreLink;

Without Activity need context/activity

 this.mStoreLink = "market://details?id=" + activity.getPackageName();

Creat a method like this.

public void rateUsOnGooglePlay() {
        final Uri marketUri = Uri.parse(mStoreLink);
        try {
            activity.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, marketUri));
        } catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
            Toast.makeText(activity, "Couldn't find PlayStore on this device", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    }

This commonly happens on a device without the Google Play Store

in my case, I wanted the user to click on "MORE BY US" and he would be redirected to my playstore homepage, but the app was crashing. The reason was simple. I added extra spaces and lines to the link something like below:

<string name = "more_app_link">

   playstore.link...............

</string>

then I removed extra lines and spaces like this:

<string name = "more_app_link">playstore.link...............</string>

and it worked very well.
