Android Question Error when using okhttpUtils2 v3.04 from receiver. Code Line OAuth2_AccessTokenAvailable.

[DaOel]

I want to send Email Reminders in my app. I succesfully tried it from an activity.
Now I want to send it from a receiver in the background.
The 'ScheduledEmailReceiver' calls himself via

Private Sub Receiver_Receive (FirstTime As Boolean, StartingIntent As Intent)
'[...]
StartServiceAtExact(Me,Starter.NextCheck,True)
'[...]

Permission SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM is granted.


Later on I try to send an Email in the same context of Receiver_Receive

The Problem occurs at line

Wait For OAuth2_AccessTokenAvailable (Success As Boolean, Token As String)

in this code block:

Sub Send (msg As MailCreator)
    Starter.oauth2.GetAccessToken
    Wait For OAuth2_AccessTokenAvailable (Success As Boolean, Token As String)
    If Success = False Then
        Log("Error accessing account.")
        Return
    End If

Error:

Is it not possible to call OAuth2_AccessTokenAvailable from a receiver?
There were some posts about FirebaseMessaging and setting priority to 10. Is it possible to set the priority for OAuth2_AccessTokenAvailable as well?

Now I want to send it from a receiver in the background.

Be aware that Google has tightened all kinds of security rules for Android. The philosophy behind this is that "dangerous" activities without the user's consent are no longer allowed. Activities that previously could simply be performed in the background are blocked by these new rules or require additional user permission.
Without stating how permission is obtained and a small example program, it is difficult to answer your question.

thanks for looking into it.
understood, you can find an example in the attachment.

The Error I get is:

Things to change in order to reproduce:

1)

2)
Create Oauth2 cliend ID in Play Console - Android Credentials.

Insert CliendId here then:

It seems like the problem can be solved by introducing its own oauth2 object in the dedicated Receiver:

Is this a proper solution?
It works on my smartphone at least... I hope it will work on other smartphones as well.

I am a bit concenerned because of this:

HttpUtils2Service starts at a random time depending on devices

Hi, after a long thread and a lot of testing, we came to the conclusion that when running this: StartReceiver(HttpUtils2Service) Depending on the device it may start instantly, or I may start in a few seconds, or it may start in minutes, or it may never start. This is a problem because in the...

After everything worked nicely. I decided to upload the aab to Google PlayStore.
I was prepared that it did not work because Google re-signs the apps. So I downloaded the apk again and checked for the new SHA1 Finger print and updated my google api console credentials.

Now after uploading the production version of my app in google play store, I wanted to test whether it works. Unfortunatelly the app crashes.
(In a menu where I ask for oauth2 permissions, it redirects to the starting screen of my app, without listboxes to be populated.)

This behaviour is different to the behaviour I saw when using the B4A Bridge. What are my options now?

Just before the crash I see this screen in the webview again for a short period of time:

which reminds me of a problem I had with package-Naming:
My App also has upper Letters in the package name. I solved this by declaring a separate scheme with only lower letters. Did google manipulate the manifest or is it not possible to use a scheme at google playstore perhaps?
