I have a foreground service that runs on my phone(Android 7.0) but it doesn't run on a friends phone(Android 8.0).I also test it on android studio emulators and i have the same problem on version 8.0.I've implemented the if-else check to see if it's Android 8.0 so i can call startForegroundService() and still nothing.

Here is how i call it:

 //Start foreground service

    Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyForeGroundService.class);

    intent.setAction(MyForeGroundService.ACTION_START_FOREGROUND_SERVICE);

    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {

        startForegroundService(intent);

    }else{

        startService(intent);

    }

And here is my foreground service:

public class MyForeGroundService extends Service implements LocationListener {



public MyForeGroundService() {

}



@Override

public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {

    // TODO: Return the communication channel to the service.

    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not yet implemented");

}



@Override

public void onCreate() {

    super.onCreate();

    wakeLock();

}



@SuppressLint("InvalidWakeLockTag")

public void wakeLock() {

    pm = (PowerManager) getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);

    assert pm != null;

    wl = pm.newWakeLock(PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK, "partialwl");

    wl.acquire();

}



public  void stopWakeLock() {

    wl.release();

}



@Override

public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {

    if (intent != null) {

        String action = intent.getAction();



        switch (action) {

            case ACTION_START_FOREGROUND_SERVICE:

                wakeLock();

                startForegroundService();

                break;

            case ACTION_STOP_FOREGROUND_SERVICE:

                stopWakeLock();

                stopForegroundService();

                break;

            case ACTION_PLAY:

                Intent openMap= new Intent(this,Map.class);

                startActivity(openMap);

                break;

            case ACTION_PAUSE:

                break;

        }

    }

    return START_STICKY;

}



/* Used to build and start foreground service. */

private void startForegroundService() {

    Log.d(TAG_FOREGROUND_SERVICE, "Start foreground service.");



    // Create notification default intent.

    Intent intent = new Intent(this,Map.class);

    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, intent, 0);



    // Create notification builder.

    NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this);



    //Go back to Map activity if user press at the notification

    builder.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)

            .setContentTitle("gEKOning...")

            .setContentText("Tap to open gEKOn app");





    builder.setWhen(System.currentTimeMillis());

    builder.setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher);

    Bitmap largeIconBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.mipmap.ic_launcher);

    builder.setLargeIcon(largeIconBitmap);

    // Make the notification max priority.

    builder.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_MAX);

    // Make head-up notification.

    builder.setFullScreenIntent(pendingIntent, true);





    // Build the notification.

    Notification notification = builder.build();



    // Start foreground service.

    startForeground(1, notification);

}

private void stopForegroundService() {

    Log.d(TAG_FOREGROUND_SERVICE, "Stop foreground service.");



    // Stop foreground service and remove the notification.

    stopForeground(true);



    // Stop the foreground service.

    stopSelf();
