You may have to set the required=false. "The element offers a required attribute that lets you specify whether your application requires and cannot function without the declared feature, or whether it prefers to have the feature but can function without it."
- When you declare "android:required="true" for a feature, you are specifying that the application *cannot function, or is not designed to function*, when the specified feature is not present on the device. - When you declare "android:required="false" for a feature, it means that the application *prefers to use the feature* if present on the device, but that it *is designed to function without the specified feature*, if necessary.
