How to fix "android.app.RemoteServiceException in android?"

Question

My app got "android.app.RemoteServiceException" exception. I've use the "JobScheduler" to instead of "Service". It worked, besides OPPO 8.1. That's all message i got.

android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1987)
android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:106)
android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:187)
android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:7025)
java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method)
com.android.internal.os.RuntimeInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(RuntimeInit.java:514)
com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:888)

Have you been able to find any solution? I also got the same problem. — ferpar1988, Sep 18 '19 at 11:50

This was happening for me too after migrating to JobScheduler. Turned out there were some alarms scheduled by the previous app version that would still try to launch the migrated service in the foreground. I fixed it by renaming the JobService class, that way the system could no longer locate it when one of those prior alarms would trigger.
