Erdős Problem #9 — Density of odd integers not of the form 2k1+2k2+p2^{k_1}+2^{k_2}+p

Erdős

Crocker [16] proved that there are infinitely many odd integers not of the form 2k1+2k2+p2^{k_1} + 2^{k_2} + p, but his proof only gives that the number of integers x\leq x not of the form 2k1+2k2+p2^{k_1} + 2^{k_2} + p is >cloglogx> c \log\log x. This surely can be improved but I am not at all sure if the upper density of the integers not of the form 2k1+2k2+p2^{k_1} + 2^{k_2} + p is positive.
