App crashes when I put it in background mode.

@Able1991 thanks but It doesn't work.

I added the permissions settings and it worked.
Try connect phone, and read log from adb
adb logcat -c for clear logs
adb logcat for open logs

Problem seem to be 'excludeFromTaskList' --> #436
The solution proposed doesn't work.

I partially fixed with:

BackgroundModeExt.java
from:
if (am == null || SDK_INT < 21)
to
if (am == null || SDK_INT < 21 || SDK_INT > 27)

but It's not the solution.

version 0.7.3 works for me on ANDROID 9, 8.0.0, 5.0.1 with:

        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />

project.ext {
  defaultBuildToolsVersion="28.0.3" //String
  defaultMinSdkVersion=19 //Integer - Minimum requirement is Android 4.4
  defaultTargetSdkVersion=28 //Integer - We ALWAYS target the latest by default
  defaultCompileSdkVersion=28 //Integer - We ALWAYS compile with the latest by default
}

To clarify the suggestion of @martin-dufka do this in config.xml:

    <platform name="android">
        [...]
        <config-file parent="/*" target="AndroidManifest.xml" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
            <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
            <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
        </config-file>
    </platform>

Luckily it did in my case. I hope you'll be able to find a solution as well.

It seems it need channel ID for Service Notification since android 8.1 take a look at this and this one as solution

[martin-dufka]

@tushe Try add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS" /> too, for low memory devices. And check if permissions were really assigned on device.

This works for me. I'm using Ionic 4 with android 9 too. Thanks
