JobService does not require android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE permission

Question

I am getting does not require android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE permission error while scheduling my JobService and I already have the bind permissions. Below is my code.

JobScheduler jobScheduler = (JobScheduler) getSystemService(JOB_SCHEDULER_SERVICE);
ComponentName componentName = new ComponentName(MainActivity.this,MyJobService.class);
JobInfo.Builder jobInfo = new JobInfo.Builder(101, componentName).setPeriodic(2000);
jobScheduler.schedule(jobInfo.build())

 <service
  android:name=".MyJobService"
  android:permission="android:permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"
  android:exported="true"/>

Error:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Scheduled service ComponentInfo{services.acadglid.com.acadgildservices/services.com.es.MyJobService} does not require android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE permission

Have you tried removing `android:permission="android:permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"` from your `service` in the manifest? — LS_, Nov 16 '17 at 09:18
write `android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"` instead of `android:permission="android:permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"` — Nazmul Haque, Nov 16 '17 at 09:29
I think it will be `.` instead of `:` in permission string.@AkhileshMani — Nazmul Haque, Nov 16 '17 at 09:36

To solve this problem:

Scheduled service ComponentInfo{.........} does not require android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE permission

add the permission:

        android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"

but requires the property:

android:exported="..."

android:exported: Whether or not the broadcast receiver can receive messages from sources outside its application — "true" if it can, and "false" if not.

For example:

    <service android:name="com.jorgesys.jobscheduler.MyService"
        android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"
        android:exported="true"/>

This worked for me beautifully! I added the following service into my AndroidManifest.xml file: ```` – Martin Erlic Nov 22 '18 at 23:57
@Elenasys In the past, my Alarm Notifications fired correctly and with no app crashes. Then app starting crashing with the same Logcat error message in the question above. I added the permission you recommended and no more crashes. What changed with the OS? Is the permission now a requirement for firing Alarm Notifications? – AJW May 30 '19 at 04:30
This is not working in my case,... I am using job intent service – Abdul Waheed Nov 26 '19 at 16:34

There's a typo in your Android Manifest.

Just change the following line:

android:permission="android:permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"
                           ^
                           |
                    This " : " is WRONG!

to

android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"

So just change : (colon) in to . (dot).
