Android - application not found error for some users after update

I have an android app on play store. I just released a new version but some of users report that after update they cant open application because they get application not installed error but they can open application through market by touching on open button. On new version i used same .jks file, I changed AndroidManifest.xml because i wanted to change main activity from .MainActivity to .Landing so mainActivity is no longer main. Maybe problem happens because of that? By the way not all users effected from this problem. Here is old and new AndroidManifest files and could you please check these files? Maybe another row cause that problem?
Solitions;
- Some users restart their phone and it works
- But some users cant fix by restarting their phone, so they remove and install again to fix it
But why this happens to some users?

Your MainActivity is no longer a MAIN/LAUNCHER activity. Are you sure it's not just a matter of old shortcuts disappearing/failing to launch because of this?
The difference between users may be caused by having different launcher apps (various manufacturers or manually installed). If you have some helpful users, you could ask them to:
check the app drawer for the app, and
take a bugreport and send it to you (so that we may be able to see some logs of a failed launch)

Unity Android Push Notifications - Outdated Device

I am having trouble getting Push Notifications to work in my Unity application on Android. I have followed the steps in the Parse documentation, including setting up the AndroidManifest.xml. The device registers an installation, which I can see on the dashboard. However, when using the dashboard to create a Push the delivery report always says "PPNS - OUTDATED DEVICE" for my tablet.
I followed the instructions for creating the AndroidManifest.xml file from here:
https://www.parse.com/apps/quickstart#parse_push/unity/android/existing
Do I need to set the "GCMSenderId" value of the installation? The documentation was kind of ambiguous on that.
Here are the contents of my manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.unity3d.player"
android:installLocation="preferExternal"
android:versionCode="1"

android:normalScreens="true"
android:largeScreens="true"

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE" />
<permission android:protectionLevel="signature"
android:name="com.unity3d.player.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.unity3d.player.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />
<application

android:icon="#drawable/app_icon"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:debuggable="true"> <!-- SET TO FALSE FOR RELEASE BUILD -->
<activity android:name="com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayerActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="unityplayer.UnityActivity" android:value="true" />
</activity>
<service android:name="com.parse.ParsePushService" />
<receiver android:name="com.parse.ParsePushBroadcastReceiver"
android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />
<action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION" />
<category android:name="com.unity3d.player" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
</manifest>

OK, so I've figured it out. I had a few things wrong with the manifest file, but the most important thing was changing the package name from the default of "com.unity3d.player". I had another test Unity app on the device using the same default package name, and I believe that because it was installed first it was intercepting the notifications.
Anyway, here is my AndroidManifest.xml file for anyone else having trouble with Parse Push using Unity3D and Android devices.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</manifest>
Note that you would replace all instances of "com.yourcompany.yourproductname" with whatever package name you want to use.

Parse.com Push Notification Service with cocos2d-javascript native project

I am trying to add push notification from the parse.com service which has its android sdk and following settings to cocos2d-JS project
Add parse sdk to lib ( I added it to runtime-src/proj.android/lib) and added as build path
Call Parse.initialize from the onCreate method of your Application class to set your application id and client key:
public void onCreate() {
Parse.initialize(this, "app_key", "client_key");
}
For this , I created a package name of com.mycompany.myapp in runtime-src/proj.android/src/
