The message is self-explanatory and you can easily make the changes as suggested, but if you want to save some time by not manually making each of the entries as suggested, copy and paste the code segment given below in this post.

Look for the <Capabilities>    </Capabilities> node in the file and copy/paste the following elements inside the node:

<Capability Name="ID_CAP_NETWORKING"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_LOCATION"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_SENSORS"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_MICROPHONE"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_MEDIALIB"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_GAMERSERVICES"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_PHONEDIALER"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_PUSH_NOTIFICATION"/>
<Capability Name="ID_CAP_WEBBROWSERCOMPONENT"/>
