I am running into this error when trying to check the "Always Finish" check box in the application after installing it.

I installed using adb and using the apk found in the releases directory of this repo. I pulled this apk down yesterday and have had no luck. Here are the tablet specs I am working with:

Android Version: 4.4.2
Tablet Platform: Galaxy Tab S
ADB version: 1.0.32
SetAlwaysFinish Version: 1.0

Install appeared to work without an issue and I am able to find the application in my applications list.

I am also running into an issue when trying to use the intent example given. I am assuming these are related. The error I get when trying to run the command given in the README.md is below.

-Error: Activity not started, unable to resolve Intent { dat=setalwaysfinish://?alwaysfinish=true&notify=true flg=0x10000000 }

Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

No such method exception ... ActivityManagerNative.setAlwaysFinish.... So looks like project abandoned ?

I downloaded the source and put a printStackTrace in the writeFinishOptions method catch clause and then i see the cause:

?:??: W/?(?): Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: setAlwaysFinish() from pid=8475, uid=10008 requires android.permission.SET_ALWAYS_FINISH

However that permission is already in your Manifest. What is going wrong here?
