Android application is installing 2 times in device

I am getting multiple applications(with the same name) while installing this application, if I uninstall one other one gets deleted, in the beginning, the count was three but after making changes the count is two, now I want only single app ....how do ideal with this?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

<activity android:name=".UpdateDetails">
</activity>
<meta-data

android:resource="#array/preloaded_fonts" />
</application>

If the app names are the same the reason can be using multiple launcher intent in your manifest file. Check your merged manifest file instead of application manifest file.

i think u must have used this intent filter twice in multiple activities.check your manifest file

what permissions should i add in mainfest.xml

what permissions should i add in mainfest.xml of adroid studio for following app. Please help me. i am new developer.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=aa.bb.waqas.myapplication&hl=en
tell me about all permissions that i need to add it.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="aa1.bb.waqas.myapplication">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"

android:label="IELTS Preparation In One Day"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"

<activity android:name=".t4" />
<activity android:name=".t5" />
<activity android:name=".t6" /><activity android:name=".t7" />
</application>
</manifest>

As you shared the link of application, there are only two permissions are needed
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
and You may need to add more permissions as per your requirements.

change default start activity error

This is my code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- To auto-complete the email text field in the login form with the user's emails -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PROFILE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".RegisterActivity"/>
<activity
android:name=".SplashActivity"
android:exported="true" />
<activity
android:name=".LoginActivity"/>
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/title_activity_main" />
</application>
At the beginning, my project exported property is in the LoginActivity section.
But after I change exported="true" to SplashActivity it's not work...
I tried to change to RegisterActivity section and got the same error.
Event log is "Error running app: The activity must be exported or contain an intent-filter"
my android studio version is 2.3.3 and project min SDK is 19
Is there anyone have the same problem?..
Updare:
This is my latest code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- To auto-complete the email text field in the login form with the user's emails -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PROFILE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".RegisterActivity"/>
<activity
android:name=".SplashActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".LoginActivity" />
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/title_activity_main" />
</application>
But I got the
same problem
...

try defining your Splash activity like this :
<activity
android:name=".SplashActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

In the Manifest file you must have an Activity that is set as Main so the app will know what to launch first.
By adding the following intent-filters you set the following Activity as main.
<activity
android:name=".Activity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>

System Permission Issue in android sdk

After updating Android SDK to 2.2.0, the system permissions doesn't work.
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.hakobm.location">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
It's says that Manifest doesn't end with a final newline
Who knows why?
Thanks!

End the manifest at the end(after application).
{
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.hakobm.location">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

AndroidManifest.xml - The element must be a direct child of the <application> element error

I made a copy of one of my working projects for another project. Ever since I can't get the AndroidManifest.xml to work properly. I get the error The element must be a direct child of the <application> element or The element type "manifest" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</manifest>"error. I have refactored everything else and don't see any errors in my classes. Just the xml file is being a pain. What is wrong with this file? It looks fine and looks like my working one. Eclipse seems to think there are errors.

You have directly close your application tag
Replace this :
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:hardwareAccelerated="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" />
by this :
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:hardwareAccelerated="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
EDIT :
You have to replace this :
<activity
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:launchMode="singleTop"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"/>
by this :
<activity
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:launchMode="singleTop"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
This :
<activity
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.SplashScreen"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" />
by this :
<activity
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.SplashScreen"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
This :
<receiver
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.gcm.GCMReceiver"
android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND" />
by this:
<receiver
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.gcm.GCMReceiver"
android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND" >
And finally this :
<activity
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.NotifyActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:label="#string/title_activity_notify" />
</activity>
by this :
<activity
android:name="com.mydomain.qsd.NotifyActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:label="#string/title_activity_notify" />

Your application Tag and also Activity tags have self close so remove that
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:hardwareAccelerated="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" /> <----- remove /
