Android 5.0 (L) Service Intent must be explicit in Google analytics

Question

My code worked in <5 but in Android 5.0 I\'m running into an issue that I don\'t quite understand.

Answer 1

I used this and it works great

 public static Intent createExplicitFromImplicitIntent(Context context, Intent implicitIntent) {
     //Retrieve all services that can match the given intent
     PackageManager pm = context.getPackageManager();
     List resolveInfo = pm.queryIntentServices(implicitIntent, 0);

     //Make sure only one match was found
       if (resolveInfo == null || resolveInfo.size() != 1) {
        return null;
       }

     //Get component info and create ComponentName
     ResolveInfo serviceInfo = resolveInfo.get(0);
     String packageName = serviceInfo.serviceInfo.packageName;
     String className = serviceInfo.serviceInfo.name;
     ComponentName component = new ComponentName(packageName, className);

     //Create a new intent. Use the old one for extras and such reuse
     Intent explicitIntent = new Intent(implicitIntent);

     //Set the component to be explicit
     explicitIntent.setComponent(component);

     return explicitIntent;
 }
