The error I am receiving is
2022-01-28 11:10:42.186 1651-3045/? W/ActivityManager: Unable to start service Intent { act=nveeaidle pkg=com.rchan.nveeapplication } U=0: not found
I have ensured the following code in both my applications (client and server). In my server manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.rchan.nveeapplication">
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.gms.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION" />

</intent-filter>
</service>
<receiver android:name="com.rchan.nvee_sdk.detectedactivity.DetectedActivityReceiver"/>
<!-- <receiver-->

<!-- <intent-filter>-->
<!-- <action android:name="action.TRANSITIONS_DATA" />-->
<!-- </intent-filter>-->
<!-- </receiver>-->
</application>
</manifest>
In my client, I have this in my fragment:
private fun connectToRemoteService() {
val intent = Intent("nveeaidle")
val pack = "com.rchan.nveeapplication"
pack?.let {
intent.setPackage(pack)
activity?.applicationContext?.bindService(
intent, this, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE
)
}
}
I am not sure what is causing this warning, and I have tried out different solutions after searching on stackoverflow and google.
How do I test is:
Thank you for taking the time to read my question.
I did more searching and finally found the answer... All credits go to the SO answer here:

TLDR:
Had to change the intent from implicit to explicit due to API 21
intent.setClassName("com.rchan.nveeapplication","com.rchan.nvee_sdk.detectedactivity.DetectedActivityService")
