How to integrate AndroidManifest.xml?

So I need to integrate unity with android feature like connect to 3rd party app.
So I made .apk build after working at eclipse, but how to integrate between 2 AndroidManifest files?
First reference one is,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.mygame.plugin"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="8"
android:targetSdkVersion="21" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<data android:scheme="ka67492508561297" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name="com.kakao.unity.plugin.ThirdPartyPostStoryActivity" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysVisible" android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"/>
</application>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
and the main one my game currently uses is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest

</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name="com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayerProxyActivity"
android:launchMode="singleTask"

</activity>
<activity android:name="com.ka.unity.plugin.ThirdPartyPostStoryActivity" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysVisible" android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"/>

<uses-permission android:name="com.sec.android.iap.permission.BILLING"/>
<uses-permission android:name="org.onepf.openiab.permission.BILLING"/>
So I merged reference one to my main one like above,
But error says,
[UnityException: Unable to start activity!
No activity in the manifest with action MAIN and category LAUNCHER. Try launching the application manually on the device.]
I still can make .apk file, and can run on my phone, but can't connect to 3rd party app when in-game button touched that should launch connection.
So strange... how should I fix?
Thanks.

PhoneGap Android orientation change takes the app one page back

I'm developing a simple Android app on PhoneGap where the users can calculate their GPA's and CGPA's.
I sense something strange happening. Whenever the user tilts the screen and shifts from portrait to landscape mode, the app goes back to the previous page as if the back button was pressed.
This is how my manifest file looks,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.firstVersion"
android:versionCode="3"
android:versionName="1.2" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="4"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<supports-screens
android:largeScreens="true"
android:normalScreens="true"
android:smallScreens="true"
android:xlargeScreens="true"
android:resizeable="true"
android:anyDensity="true"
/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

<application

</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>

Add android:configChanges under each activity tag not in application tag as you written in application tag and skip it to MainActivity tag
Try This:-
<activity
android:name="com.example.firstVersion.MainActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden|keyboard|locale"
android:label="#string/app_name">

wrong activity is started in android app

I am trying to fix the issue for hours but I couldn't. The app is not launching activity I mentioned in the manifest, see following
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
ThumbUpGoogleMap is in green.thumbup.driver.ThumbUpGoogleMap package.The application is always launching Loging activity from green.thumbup.login.Login, which is old main activity. Login was launch in the previous build but I completely removed and rebuilding the application.
I tried following but not success
I cleaned the code multiple times
I created a new AVD
I change activity path to android:name="green.thumbup.driver.ThumbUpGoogleMap"
Also tried
This is driving me crazy, any hint, suggestion would be of great help

Please write these two lines with activity declaration. And try to give full name for activity instead of just
.driver.ThumbUpGoogleMap
<activity android:name="green.thumbup.driver.ThumbUpGoogleMap" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
And remove <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> from your Main Activity declaration.

Try this
<activity android:name=".driver.ThumbUpGoogleMap" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
EDIT:
If this doesnt solves the issue.. make this 4 lines
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
are used only once in the manifest file between any activity tags

thank you

I suspect that the problem lay withing your code. One of your activities might has a method that is supported only since API 13 (e.g. Android 3.2 and above). That's why it can be downloaded for newer version (ICS which is android 4) and not your.
double check your methods to figure that out.

Android StackWidget unable to bind

I am currently trying to add a widget to my application and have been basing my implementation on this code http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/StackWidget/index.html
I have put all my stack widget related classes in their own package within my main package.
When I try to add the widget it is unable to bind and hence the cards are not displayed (it just states the default text "This is the empty view")
Below is my manifest.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.bencallis.dealpad" android:versionCode="1"

android:resource="#xml/stackwidgetinfo" />
</receiver>
<service android:name="stackwidget.StackWidgetService"
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_REMOTEVIEWS"
android:exported="false" />
</application>
</manifest>
Error message:
E/RemoteViewsAdapterServiceConnection(474): bind(): Unknown component ComponentInfo{com.bencallis.dealpad/com.bencallis.dealpad.stackwidget.StackWidgetService}
I am sure there is a simple mistake somewhere which is making the component info repeat com.bencallis.dealpad.
Any ideas?

It turned out it was to do with my manifest and a problem locating the service. I was missing a . in the name (which gives it the path).
Silly mistake!
