Play Services GcmTaskService schedule crashes sometimes

[niqo01]

I am seeing a few crashes using GcmTaskService.
The error message show:
"There is no GcmTaskService component registered within this package. Have you extended GcmTaskService correctly?"

You can find the stacktrace, devices impacted and Android version here:
http://crashes.to/s/8f4a3a13a0c

Please find below more details on my setup:
Google Play services:
'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:7.5.0'

AndroidManifest:

    <service
        android:name=".service.UploadAnalyticsService"
        android:exported="true"
        android:permission="com.google.android.gms.permission.BIND_NETWORK_TASK_SERVICE"
        >
      <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="com.google.android.gms.gcm.ACTION_TASK_READY"/>
      </intent-filter>
    </service>

Schedule code:

    OneoffTask myTask =
        new OneoffTask.Builder().setService(UploadAnalyticsService.class).setExecutionWindow(0,
            15 * 60) 
            .setRequiredNetwork(Task.NETWORK_STATE_CONNECTED).setPersisted(
            true) 
            .setUpdateCurrent(true).setTag(TASK_TAG).build();
    gcmNetworkManager.schedule(myTask);

And my Java class which obviously extends GcmTaskService

public class UploadAnalyticsService extends GcmTaskService

I have the same problem. It works correctly on all my devices, but sometimes user report this issue.
I check GPS availability before use with

GoogleApiAvailability.getInstance().isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(context)

[yshahak]

I run to the same problem exactly, and also checked that GoogleApiAvailability is available.

Any update on this? I've got the same exception on production lately.

Which version of the Googl play services are you using?

'com.google.android.gms:play-services:9.2.1' ?

[GaborPeto]

I was using 9.0.0. I've updated to 9.2.1 just now, will see if this happens on this version as well.

[humblerookie]

I was getting the same crash with 8.4.0.

Is anyone able to reproduce this issue?

I have raised an issue for the same. Could you guys bump it up just in case.

[eric-labelle]

Having the same problem here, using play services 8.4.0.
Can't find any way to reproduce nor find any common thing between all the crashes. It happened on pretty much any device and any OS version from what I can see.

[GaborPeto]

updating to version 9.2.1 did not resolve this issue.

[GaborPeto]

Any update on this issue? Still getting this in version 10.2.1

It seems i'm suffering from this as well occasionally, any updates?

[Sloy]

Another one here ☝️

[green-nick]

I have crashes too in version 10.2.1

[ogeidix]

Hi everybody,
we are aware of this issue and we are actively investigating it.
Unfortunately it seems to be a problem within the Android Framework which leaves us few options available. We are still investigating and we will report if we can fix it.

[renlikuan]

I have crashes too
any update for the issue?

[whalemare]

Also there is a crash, who ever fixed?

[awenger]

There is another similar bug (problem to find the service in the manifest) mentioned here: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37113668

[deepakmishra]

I have the same bug in 12.0.0
