My manifest file is as follows and in which i want to start my
service.
<application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/
app_name" android:enabled="true">
<service
android:enabled="true"
android:name=".MyService">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="test.com.MyService" />
</intent-filter>
</service>
<activity android:name=".ServiceTest"
android:label="@string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
Is there any wrong with above manifest file.
