Description

On a degoogled android custom ROM without microg and without google play services it has a minor bug.

There is no problem when using Wi-fi, it can detect internet then, but not when using mobile data.

  2. Wifi or other network connection off

Is the issue solvable, or it cannot be solved? I think the problem has arised due to Brave android too much dependency on Safetynet. The bug is quite irritating while watching movies/videos in full screen mode, as the error bar is visible. I have to use Wi-Fi to watch videos.

@deeppandya to verify on android emulator.

My problem has been automatically solved either from my 'de-googled' OS code change or from brave browser code change.

Most likely it was due a to a recent OS upgrade I did. This upgrade was a major one, migrating from android 11 to android 12, which might have solved this issue on it's own.
