Android Installation error: INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_MANIFEST_MALFORMED

I am making an application, when I run that application I am getting following error during running.
[2015-06-19 17:11:06 - Ecommerce] Installation error:
[2015-06-19 17:11:06 - Ecommerce] Please check logcat output for more details.

Try specifying google play services version in meta-data
<meta-data

android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
From google maps doc-https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start
Edit your application's AndroidManifest.xml file, and add the
following declaration within the element. This embeds
the version of Google Play services that the app was compiled with.

It doesn't open if the app is on the background and doesn't update the information in the activity while in the foreground when a new push notification arrives.

You can take a look at the following Native Android sample application that demonstrates implementing Tag-based push notifications: https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/documentation/getting-started-7-0/notifications/push-notification-native-android-applications/tag-based-notifications/
Compare its files with yours (AndroidManifest.xml, strings.xml, ...).
Since you are not responding in the comments, that's the best that can be done at this time.
Note: This application is based on MobileFirst Platform 7.0, so you cannot open the project file in previous releases. However, you can still extract the .zip file and look at the source files from the file system.

Android wear app won't install

I have developed a android app with a wear app. Now I like to release the app but if I make a release mobile APK with the wear APK included the wear app won't install on the watch.
I follow this document.
https://developer.android.com/training/wearables/apps/packaging.html#PackageManually
The app was created with Eclipce.
In debug mode I can install the wear app and everything works fine.
I use the same package name.
Exported the app with the same key.
And I use real hardware to test a HTC One M7 and the samsung Gear Live.
I install the apk with the "adb install c8.apk".
This is how I release the app.
Export the wear project if a Android Application.
Use the same key alias if I use for the phone app.
rename the .apk to wearable_app.apk
Put the .apk file in the Phone project res/raw dir.
Export the phone project if a Android Application.
Use the same key alias if I use for the wear app.
Edit: Full Manifest
The Phone manifest.

I have found the problems.
In the wearable_app_desc.xml rawParhResId need to be rawPathResId.
And the permision give also a problem. After I remove it the installation is successful.

WakefulReceiver fires on all versions but 4.0.3

I've got a WakefulReceiver and an IntentService set up for push notifications, just the way they are shown in the GCM tutorial.
I've gotten the notifications without issue in most devices version on Android versions 4.1.x and up (.2, .3, .4) no problem.
However on version 4.0.3 my wakeful receiver is not even firing. I've gone over the permissions since that's what I've seen on the net, but I've thrice checked the permissions and they seem to be fine.
Is there a known issue with 4.0.3 or some other lead?

06-25 16:25:05.132: E/PackageParser(2510): Package com.name.name has no certificates at entry res/drawable/boton_continuar_pago.png; ignoring!

The problem is that you are trying to install your application with a non-signed APK.
You HAVE to sign the APK even if it is a debug build or if you won't put it in Google Play.
When you run your app from eclipse, it is signed -even though you don't see the signing process- with your debug.keystore.
ALL apps MUST be signed before you install them on a device. ALWAYS. That suffers no exception.

Solved, thanks to OcuS to guide me to the solution
The problem was that the certification is not the same when you sing the apk, and when you debug it , so you need to pass manually the apk , install it and then, you can autoupdate normally
