title: 'Plugin unable to bind to background service' - Red-folder phonegap plugin
body: <p>I've been trying to create a background service for my cordova app using <a href="https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core/wiki/Build-your-own-Background-Service" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> tutorial. I've been getting an error which says: <code>Plugin unable to bind to background service.</code> I've been researching this error and multiple fixes are offered on github <a href="https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core/issues/18" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>. However these fixes don't fix my problem. I've posted a comment in the link above explaining the problem, but there is no fix yet. there are more comments saying they encounter the same problem though.</p>
  
  <p>The solution offered <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22642590/how-to-implement-phonegap-android-background-service">here</a>, doesn't relate to my problem and neither fixes it.</p>
  
  <p>I've followed the exact instructions of the tutorial and have used the same names as mentioned in the tutorial. My package name is: <code>com.red_folder.phonegap.plugin.backgroundservice.sample</code>
  And declared the service in the <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;service android:name="com.red_folder.phonegap.plugin.backgroundservice.sample.MyService"&gt;
     &lt;intent-filter&gt;
        &lt;action android:name="com.red_folder.phonegap.plugin.backgroundservice.sample.MyService" /&gt;
     &lt;/intent-filter&gt;
  &lt;/service&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does anyone here have a workaround for this problem?</p>
  
  <p>Many thanks in advance!</p>
