whenever i run this code in KITKAT , it crashes . any devices greater or equal 5.0 (LOLIPOP) works fine.
ActivityManager am = (ActivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
ComponentName cn = am.getRunningTasks(1).get(0).topActivity;
if (cn.getClassName().equalsIgnoreCase("com.mypackage.Login") || cn.getClassName().equalsIgnoreCase("com.mypackage.main.WaitForApproval")) {
listner.setOnline();
}
The error looks like:

so i added a new permission
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_TASKS"/>
This get task permission is depricated ref here https://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission#GET_TASKS , and it works when i use this depricated permission , is the way to solve the problem? i am in dilemma.
