MediaProjection service type not recognized in android Q

Question

With the new privacy changes in effect with Android Q, it is now mandatory for any app using MediaProjection api to specify android:foregroundServiceType attribute

Answer 1

Changing the following attributes

android:foregroundServiceType="mediaProjection"

tools:targetApi="q"

in AndroidManifest.xml worked for me.

< service

android:name="SERVICE_NAME"

android:foregroundServiceType="mediaProjection"

tools:targetApi="q"

android:enabled="true"

android:exported="false" />
