Answer 1

You are declaring the flashlight permission twice. And the first time you aren't specifying that it is not required.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FLASHLIGHT" />

This is probably conflicting with the second declaration.

<uses-permission
    android:name="android.permission.FLASHLIGHT"
    android:permissionGroup="android.permission-group.HARDWARE_CONTROLS"
    android:protectionLevel="normal"
    android:required="false" />

Try removing the first one and see what happens.

Answer 2

You should define the support screens feature in your manifest as below which will allow to support nexus 7:

<supports-screens android:smallScreens="true"
              android:normalScreens="true"
              android:largeScreens="true"
              android:xlargeScreens="true"
              android:requiresSmallestWidthDp="600" /> 

Answer 3

May be you need to add this line also since you are using READ_PHONE_STATE permission

Answer 4

• uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" android:targetSdkVersion="19" in manifest

---

Answer 5

The problem doesn't seem to be related to your listing on the app store. According to the console your application is compatible with the Nexus 7.

The first thing I would suggest is checking appt.

Next, my guess is that either the Play Store hasn't updated the listing yet or your device is not identifying itself appropriately.

Answer 6

According to this post: Nexus 7 Support for Android Application Manifest Assembly

Nexus 7 cannot support <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />.
